Adolescence and Body Image
7:00:00 AM
The adolescence stage is a time of very significant change and development in your child. These changes and developments aren't only physical but emotional too. It is in this delicate stage of time that teens worry about body image and have the media's version of what is a "perfect image".
With that being said, parents should take the time to not correct (that would be too messing, especially with a teenager's raging emotions) but to prevent this negative thoughts from ever entering their minds by instilling self confidence. Start by telling them how beautiful they are from an early age and this will allow them to develop their self-worth.
An important thing to notice is that you as a parent should exude confidence so that you can be an example to your child.
