She weighs six stone. I'm pretty sure when they start using rocks to represent your weight then you're fat.
I lawled. Then I lawled again.
People in the UK weigh themselves in stones, because their currency is called pounds. O_oQuote:

6 stones is like 84 pounds.
Thats not fat for a 4'9 10 year old.
She's not old enough to have self-esteem "I'm fat-but-not-really!" issues, so why do the parents work hard to convince her she's not fat, if she's not fat?
I'm a guy and I'm pretty sure I didn't weigh 84 lbs. when I was 10, but whatever....Quote:

"She is solidly built but not fat." All parents say that when their child is fat. Just as skinny kids are called "Lanky" not skinny.
EDIT:
She said, "I am absolutely aghast that children are being told they are fat. A child's BMI can change every month and it is perfectly possible for a child to be stocky, yet still very fit.
No, that is wrong. Fat kids are fat because we let them stay fat. Tell a child they're fat and they may take action before it becomes a near impossible task to remove. A child will grow up being "Stocky" and when they're 15-20 notice o crap i'm a walrus and then you have the problem. Emo attitude will emerge and the fat train has hit full speed. Now gaining weight will be a normal thing for this person and their personality will be damaged forever as such. I am pro telling children that they're fat and getting them to work out. Sure they might cry a little at first, but have a higher chance of not being really huge in the long run. :) Am i a total ass?
Ah man, that kid is gonna get anorexia when she grows up I just know it.
If she cares that much about her weight at 10 that just think when she gets into her teens...
No doubt she went and ate a bunch of comfort food after that.
*is insensitive in the extreme towards fat people*
I'm glad that the wii says what everybody is thinking. Luckily so far all my wii has told me to do is put the strap on tightly.

Wii fit is exactly what the world needs. We can't cry and moan everytime an electronic device dishes out some truth. We must embrace it, and change for a better tomorrow!
Win :P .Quote:

It would be heaven, all the fun of telling a girl she has a fat ass without the repercussions.
I lol'ed myself to the ground!
Get a grip fatties,it's not like the people who created the actual Wii Fit aren't fat.
Since when was it a crime to call someone fat?
ermm why do i have a feeling they dunno what BMI means
its growth and weight
so yes technicly shes fat because shes short
if she was 5ft then she wouldnt be called fat
shes to heavy for her weight
even though muscle does weigh more than fat
If a computer calls her fat and she is totally struck down, wait until her high-school years; it'll be like Hell for her.
4'9 and 84 pounds? That's not fat.
oh, lawdy. i lawld at this. XD
but what really made me laugh, is the pic drachir posted. XD
did the game just flat out say she's fat?
I was going to say "haha, just another thing to laugh about the UK for," but then I realized people in the US are probably going to jump on the bandwagon pretty damn fast and call for Wii-Fit to be banned over here too.
*Sigh* Stupidity knows no borders.
But now that I know Wii-Fit will actually go straight out and call you fat, I am totally buying a Wii just so I can watch my mom/sisters play this game.
is their video proof that it flat out says you're fat?
i would like to see it. XD
thats a good idea i got to buy one tooQuote:

Indeed; I just recently beat Half-Life 2: Episode 2 and the ending shocked me and left a little tear in my eye. Though I've been a fan since the first Half-Life game.Quote:
