awww...i'm a pretty strict mom and i think that it was an honest mistake. i would've NEVER made my child go back and apologize for the very reason that it would've been further embarassment for the overweight person. if i were a jolly ole' soul and someone came up to me and made their child apologize to me for calling me fat, i would be devastated! a stern warning that those words are hurtful and that sometimes we need to keep our opinions to ourself is good enough.
