摘要：
Obese children suffer psychological, social, and health-related consequences of weight bias and discrimination. Weight-based stigmatization toward obese youth is unrelenting, pervasive, and cruel. This paper reviews the definitions of weight-related bias and victimization, including bullying, discusses the consequences of these acts, examines current anti-bullying programs, and suggests future directions. The author recommends that all overweight or obese children (especially in school or clinical settings) be assessed for weight-based victimization with appropriate interventions employed if discovered.
