Influences Corrupting Young Girls

What is influencing our girls?

Lets dive deeper into how and where our girls are being influenced. Especially when it comes to body image. As someone who still struggles with body image and has my entire life, I can’t imagine the added pressure of social media. There can be both positive and negative influences but I would venture to say the majority make us doubt ourselves. With everything coming at use between magazines (people still read those right?), television, movies and social media often portray an unrealistic and often unhealthy body to idealize. This can often lead to feelings of dissatisfaction and inadequacy’s of ones own body.

While I am not a therapist I think it is important for girls to be able to come together and talk face to face. it is so easy to misunderstand and have hurt feelings. I have a program that allows girls to talk about real feelings and how what they say can hurt others. We discuss why it is important to them to have so many likes, what happens if they don’t hit that magic number? For more information send me an email on the contact page.
