Noone knows whats real anymore. Why are more and more people now having self esteem issues?
-
No wonder people are feeling this way. Everywhere you look on TV, in magazines....everyone is trying too hard to look perfect. On every page of a magazine, all you see is some perfect girl whos a stick figure with a gallon of makeup on with the perfect lighting and thats supposed to be normal. or some buff guy whos puffed up. Noone can be themselves anyomore. Noone knows whats real anymore. Anyne agree? Im worried about my little cousins and the way they veiw themselves after they flip throgh a magazine.

Answer:
There are too many pretty people in the world. Teens my age, like 14, feel stupid when they're not skinny, don't have a boyfriend, and not pretty. I say get rid of all the models and junk.

no one has any self esteem because it's trendy to be weak, or to have a disadvantage. everyone wants to be special and if they can't do it positively they will do it negatively. -why do people park in handicapped spaces? also, no one is responsible for themselves anymore. this is two sides of the same coin. they're not responsible because they're weak and some insignificant disadvantage made them do it. it's been backed up in the law. XXXX made me do it.

introduce your cousins to people who are truely normal... fat people, handicapped ppl, short ppl, black and white... show them that ppl can be normal no matter how they look or dress. help your cousins to have a normal self esteem by talking to them about the fact that all of those mag's are ppl who spend hours in a makeup chair and then more time in the hairdressers chair... that the looks in the mags are NOT normal. if your cousins are girls, take them for a day at a spa and get their hir, makeup and nails done- while talking to them about how long it takes... how most normal ppl do not go thru this DAILY like the supermodels do in the mag's and on tv... if they are boys, take them to the gym... work them out HARD for 3 or 4 hours, two days in a row... tell them about how the "perfect" guys in the mags have to do this EVERY DAY to keep themselves looking like they do... that it isn't normal... if that doesn't work, show them photos of "perfect" actors in middle age...

Yes I know what you mean. I have a teen girl in my home that has self esteem issues big time. She won't wear glasses, has to dress in the clothes everyone else is wearing, has to have here hair just right, and every day she still feels like she has no friends and its the only conversation she brings up with us (no friends). She's a good looking girl too but very bottles up. Sad for someone to be that way. Why can't she just be happy for who she is and be her own person?
