Not so hot

So I trot off to the newsagent's to buy my copy of Heat. This week's issue has some free stickers with it, one of which is a photograph of Katie Price's disabled son Harvey, who is five and blind, among other things. He is big for his age.

The sticker says: "Harvey wants to eat me".

This might conceivably be a (very) mildly amusing fattist joke if the image were of, I don't know, Fatty McFatty from Fatville. But it's of A FIVE YEAR OLD CHILD with severe disabilities which cause him to look the way he looks. Has Heat gone insane?

Read Caitlin Moran on the subject on Alphamummy. 

Here's a not very good picture of the sticker:

This is shocking! When i first read about the sticker in an article (it didnt have a description) i didnt think it could be that bad!
But seriously did they really think thats funny? Harvey isnt even a celebrity in his own right. I doubt they went to get his aproval or his mothers to put his face on a sticker! If that was someone elses kid like victoria beckam they would be sued like nobodys business just because it was a child!!! the fact that harveys disabled AND the comment is taking the mic out of this is beyond bad!

And people wonder why I go off the world more and more each day... At least put a picture of ME on the sticker so that little kid doesn't get so much abuse.
