Self-Image for teens and kids
Is self-image taking over our Human Society? Taking over the minds of our young children today? In one of the photos I found online was one of Britney Spears photo shopped photo. ----->
This photo gave me the idea do to a post on self-image for teens and children. Me being a 16yr-old teen I can understand how hard it is to like your body or be comfortable in it with stuff like this today. Teens are striving to look "perfect" but honestly what is "Perfect?" Who is perfect? Even though these pictures like this may look beautiful and great! But they are not real. Nothing but fake photo-shopped. I've read articles in magazines saying that children at the age young as 5 can develop an eating disorder((ED)) And then you have us teens...Is this really what society wants us to be? Worrying about whether we're pretty enough or skinny enough?
My thoughts on this whole...Skinny is the "thing" is, being skinny or perfect isn't really being healthy. Girls and boys come in different shape and sizes. Not even Britney Spears is perfect and there's the proof!
Instead of being something or someone you're not, be who you are and ONLY you.
Being perfect is not being beautiful

I found this in my drafts from last year and thought about posting it up :/
It's old but it's still up to date ^^
