Daycare worker fired after horrific note body-shaming five-year-old
A daycare employee has been fired after body-shaming a five-year-old boy and saying that he should be “put on a diet”.
The drama unfolded after the boy’s mother Francesca Easdon sent her son Kyler to school with a sweet note inside of his lunch bag.
The note read:
“Please tell Kyler that his mommy loves him so much and I’m thinking about him. Thank you!”
However, she was shocked to get a harsh response in black.
“No! Put him on a diet and go away!”
Francesca explained that she has been working with Kyler about “healthy options”.
“We have been working with Kyler on his eating, he’s extremely picky! I have been introducing new healthy options in his lunchbox and discussed the changes with his school,” she said in a Facebook post.
“And for the record, I feel that Kyler is absolutely perfect the way he is, I’m just helping him make healthier choices.”
Francesca went onto explain that she was in “absolute shock” over the reply to the note.
“I was absolutely livid and immediately reached out to the school. First thing this morning I was at the school waiting on the director with my mother in law for a meeting. I was assured that it was being investigated and handled, yet almost no remorse was shown,” she wrote.
“I also brought to their attention the fact that on his teachers public Facebook page there were mass posts regarding drug use and other very inappropriate content. The teacher that wrote this note confessed while I was at work and was fired, but nothing has been done about the other situations. Zero remorse for their actions.”
Francesca was “disgusted” in putting her trust in people who would openly boast about inappropriate content on their public page.
“Kyler’s safety and level of care comes first. Sorry for the long post but I feel it’s so important to share this. I’m extremely hands on with my child’s care and still didn’t see this coming. Monitor your daycares closely and stay away from this facility, they do NOT deserve the privilege of teaching our children.”
