VA HOUSE has passed, now goes to SENATE:

The bill also allows for schools to screen for eating disorders. The screenings are not medical or physical but would help identify risky behaviors that might lead to eating disorders.

The Virginia Department of Education will work with the Virginia Department of Health to create policies on providing parents with correct information about eating disorders from informed medical experts.



Why does this make me queasy?

Is this where I blame iPhone and cuss like an old fighter pilot's wife?

Maybe because they are promoting disordered eating on the ONE hand (in classrooms, operant conditioning behaviors, etc), and now proposing to remediate it on the other?  Oh nevermind...

Resistance isn't futile.  It's voltage divided by current.
