Shapewear Offered To Students For Miss. Body Image Program

A Mississippi middle school has canceled a program designed to educate students about body image after parents became angry over a form that offered students shapewear.

The form, sent by school counselors at Southaven Middle School, was meant to introduce a program to address societal stress on young girls to have “ideal” bodies, WMC-TV reported.

The letter asked for parental permission to give children health products, literature, bras and shapewear that had been donated to the school.
