I think it's interesting that as a society we feel no qualms about condemning obese individuals but when solutions like this school are made available so many people come out against them.

My problem is not that a solution is being made available, I just think there are better, cheaper solutions than shipping your kid off so someone else can deal with it. If it works to instill some good, healthy habits in the kids, great! But as ShaniFaye points out, what happens when these kids go back to real life where their diet is not proscribed and they don't have someone yapping at their heels making them go on hikes? It just seems to me to be a lazy way out of changing your child's lifestyle.
