Spinoff to big baby - Re: Prader Willi syndrome
Would you know the slogan for the Prader Willi syndrome is "Still hungry for a cure?"

Re: Spinoff to big baby - Re: Prader Willi syndrome
i think ti's a cool slogan actually... i mean they have a serious eating disorder... i think it's catchy while reminding people of what Prader Willi is.

It's NOT an eating disorder; it's a genetic (choromosomal) disorder.
I think the slogan actually will create some confusion among people... but it wasn't my choice to make.

I'm not a fan of cutesy slogans for serious diseases.
You don't hear the American Diabetes Association using a slogan like "Diabetes: It's Sweet on You!"

As I said above, it's not an eating disorder. The slogan leads to confusion.

It's not an eating disorder yes, but one of the symptoms is uncontrolled eating. I think it's catchy.

I understand that, but I still think the slogan lends itself to confusion and gives the wrong impression.
HOWEVER, if it's catchy and it works for the organization, then I'm in no position to judge.

Re: Spinoff to big baby - Re: Prader Willi syndrome
I did a story a few years ago (I used to work in TV news) on a boy with Prader Willi...it is such a sad and unfortunate disease...
I think the slogan is awful and inappropriate... I can't believe they would use it!

Gotcha!
Yeah, I think that people who don't know much about it just won't get it and might be confused.
I just think it's an effective way to grab someone's attention and to the fact that there is no cure.

Fair enough. I do see that. It's also not something that garners a lot of attention either, so perhaps they need something that catches the eye.
