You are Beautiful the way you are!!
It is sad to see or know that a little girl can look in the mirror and get upset at what she sees. She looks at the mirror and begins to cry,she thinks her nose is crooked,she thinks that she is ugly and fat, she hates her hair color, she doesnt like her eye color and wants contacts. We need to encourage these little girls to embrace themselves.

In this day and age it is tremendously difficult to encourage our youths to embrace themselves. As parents, aunts, uncles, older brothers and sisters we understand the peer pressure of todays society. The quest to be perfect streams all over the t.v., magazine ads and vaulted billboards. Gone were the days when adults were the only ones yearning to be perfect. Younger children are becoming more influenced by what they see on t.v. and aspire to be the picture of perfection, on beknownst to them that, that picture is a mere fascade. However as adults I think its necessary to put in the extra work to speak with the younger generation and encourage them to accept themselves for who they are. If we dont pull the reigns on this desperate cry for acceptance our world will begin to lack individuality. Embrace your freckles, your thighs, your eyes, your nose, your lips, your skin tone, embrace all that embodies YOU.
