International Size Acceptance Association
I think it is neat that this website focuses on civil rights issues in terms of size discrimination. I think it was more of a resource website, than one with a bunch of information- it refers you to related websites. I found it interesting that they used the website to advocate for children who have been taken away from their homes because they parents were "neglecting" their children by overfeeding them. I recognize there are diseases which can cause children to be overweight, or can cause children to steal food and continuously eat. My issue with the advocacy is it is too one-sided. They tell you the parents side of the story, but not Child Protective Services' side of the story. I think everyone should be well-educated on an entire issue before picking a side and advocating.
