When adopting a child, should weight be a factor in determining if someone is qualified?

A Missouri man claims he's being discriminated against due to his weight, according to. Gary Stocklaufer said he and his wife, Cynthia, were asked to adopt Gary's cousin's 3-month-old son because the relative couldn't care for the boy anymore. But a judge — the same judge who approved Gary's adoption of his now 7-year-old son — denied the adoption on the grounds of Gary's weight, Stocklaufer said.
