Some people become so desparate for acceptance from others that they will go to any lengths to get there, including harming themselves. Or sometimes it is just because they themselves do not feel good about how they look because they feel inferior to the typical image of a 'perfect person' Ex// model on a magazine cover. Despite the fact that the image of the 'perfect people' that they see have been altered to make them look better.

How do you get people to stop laughing at overweight people?

- You cannot get anyone to stop laughing at overweight people or anyone who does not particularly fit into their personal criteria.- Not all people poke fun at overweight people.- If you are a friend of an overweight person, you can stand up for them. Once you do, you are beginning to stop the chain reaction of crude jokes that are hurting your friend (or yourself, if you are overweight.)- People who throw stones at glasshouses get theirs in the end. I know I've seen it many times.- The person who is receiving the remarks could say, 'I can still lose weight, but being mean spirited isn't so fixable".- Generally, this behavior begins in High School, High School isn't forever, and they will soon forget about the person who is the subject of their jokes.- Being overweight is not healthy so if this is a friend (or simply yourself) join Weight Watchers and get moving and start losing some of that weight, but do it for YOU and not for THEM!- Ask them what they would feel like if they were visibly different and had people laughing at them.- Heavy people can lose weight more easily than mean people can change their hearts.- Don't hand out unsolicited advice. Some people have hereditary predisposition to obesity, some have control issues in other areas of their lives.- Telling heavy people to get moving is as helpful as shoving cream pie at an anorexic. Food is usually NOT the problem, but an outward manifestation of an inner problem.- Unconditional caring and acceptance would be much more helpful.
