The sad thing is, there are moms out there who are actually like this.

[oliviarenee]

honestly, the most touching thing about this video is the teenage girls that stepped in to help her make her feel comfortable. telling her she is gorgeous no matter what. because today, girls that age don’t often feel that way. a lot of girls are nasty about appearances.

[aydamohamed]

as a girl who struggled with her weight all her life. this episode really hit close to home.

I hate parents who tell their kids in such young ages they need to loose weights. If your child is overweight just have a new entire diet for the entire family and serve different kind of food, smaller plates and portions and include everyone to do some sports activities. Joining a sport team, riding bike regularly or anything like that so the kid can loose weights without being shamed .. kids these ages don’t feed themselves! It’s the food you serve and lack of physical activity that makes them weight more..

Roses are Red,
Violets are Blue,
I’m John Quinones,
And this is What Would You Do

[left-footedyodelingshoemon]

Imagine how the girl had to cope in being hired to play the role of an overweight kid

[johnnynanoel]

“we could be depressed but we’re skinny” i- i felt that

[ellatizzy]

There's a huge difference between a mother who's worried for their childs health and happiness (if the child is unhappy with their weight) and a mother who wants to live through their child or wants people to think she's some great mom because her daughter is ideal.

The way the last woman whipped around gave me CHILLS

[Colbyever]

I hope the girl is okay after being body shammed so much.

[farrah.]

Imagine how hurt that girl must feel after being casted as the overweight kid…

This happened to me when I was 14 I would've absolutely loved for somebody to stand up for me like those women did, it's inspiring seeing these kind of people 💗💗

[lilpotatochild]

Actor: *sneezes*
Me: bless you
*john comes out with the cameras* so, what made you say that?
Me: ...

[kate-lfvd]

even though she’s an actor i wonder how the little girl was feeling after the scenes 😣

[lorrr_randomly]

"and im so angry right now" u can see her female rage she's trying so hard to not burst all out bc she's talking to a fellow woman and also a mother like her. i love it

[ottersarah]

I love seeing those older teens and twenties girls standing up for her.

[dehlila]

Is anyone ignoring the fact that her dress is a little too mature for her age ? 😂😂

[taasalameh]

But... imagine how the actor feels... i mean, its not like its a different body she wears to act....

[hadleyrae]

me as a child, i was overweight, i was bullied at the start of year 7, that led me to bulimia. i’m now nearly in 10th grade and am suffering bulimia and negative body image so, this hits home

"Don't you want that summer body" said by a mom to her child is the creepiest WWYD line yet
