People should be aware of the dangers of divulging too much personal information especially in an area which caters to young people. That is an magnet to sexual preditors and other wierdos, unlike developing your own web site with the same kinds of info. The fact that the site caters to teenagers should be a caution and parents should be aware of what their kids are putting out there. Stepping off the porch and into the real world doesn't mean to jump right out there in front of oncoming traffic.

That is discrimination......there is a National Awareness Group
to fight against obesity discrimination. Look into that......I don't think, by law, insurance companies can do that, but I may be wrong.
Really, that is awful. It is a form of discrimination, just like not having a seat on an airplane to fit larger people. Eventually, all planes now are supposed to accommodate those with disabilities and I think obesity has been labeled a "Disabiilty' of late.
Check into it further, for your own benefit. Good luck and I wish you well.
