Sad reality

One of the most common issues teenage girls go through is low self-esteem. Statistics show that this problem is more common during middle and high school, where it seems every one worries just about how to be appealing to the opposite sex, and there is where people start judging others, if they are too fat, skinny, tall, short, or any other little thing they might find funny or that stands out.

Guys also go through this kinds of abuse, but girls get more pressured and concerned about it, like the web page The Self Esteem shop says girls with low self esteem tend to have more behavior issues and being less social every day than girls with high self esteem, that can lead to mental problems such as not liking the way they look and in most cases recurring to bulimia/anorexia or suicide tendencies (the-self-esteem-shop).

People should really stop just looking at what is in the outside, if things could be like that, is more than accurate that this problem would be less common, more people would feel good about themselves, and many tragic and sad cases might even be prevented.
