92% of the teen girls
would like to change something about the way they look,
With body weight ranking the highest, 75% of
these teenage girls felt depressed,
Guilty and shameful
after spending just three minutes leafing through a fashion magazine. 25% would
consider undergoing plastic surgery, And only 2% would describe themselves as
beautiful.
A severe lack of self-esteem is an extreme issue prevalent among
today’s teen girls.
These small seeds of self-doubt are what lead to depression,
eating disorders and introversion.
The roots of this problem is that 1 in 5 high school
girls say they do not know three adults to whom to turn if they have a problem.
By the time they are getting older, there is
no undoing the damage, the simple reality is not that society is failing to
provide role models, but that the standards for being a role model have
drastically plummeted.
They need a reason to
value themselves; the community we are looking to target is girls between the
ages of 8 and 12, the age range during which girls are most impressionable and
looking for guidance as insecurities begin to develop.
We need to plan
initially reach out to girls in our local community we need to tell them that
fashion and movie stars are fake we need
to show them that there are many important people that they can take as role
models.
We should explain to
them the idea is all about what you do to other and to world not about how do
look like or what you wear!! And to the
head of the problem to the moms please please wake up stop talking about diets
weights and plastic surgery, NEVER Critical of your
teen girl if she got fat!! Be her role model be her shelter.
try to be a good role model..save the world save a child
