Looking Good Young teenagers these days always want to look their best. They exercise daily and keep themselves on a strict diet. Some women seem to always think that their look is not good enough though, so they go to the extreme and starve themselves until they look the way they want. They’re afraid of what people may say behind their backs or to their faces. They start feeling self conscious about themselves, and begin having a low self-esteem. There are even some women that have to look in the mirror all the time to make sure they look their best. They can’t have a string hanging or anything on their face.

There are also many parents that pressure their child to look the way they want them to look by putting them on a diet, or limiting their food. The child then starts getting used to the fact of dieting and looking good, that they influence other young girls to do the same. Other things young teenagers do are getting tattoos, piercings, and even unprofessional surgery. I hear all the time on the news about how young girls die because of unsterilized needles that are used on them for tattoos, and piercings. They felt the need to get it because of all the peer pressure that was happening at school. When I was in High School I knew so many girls that changed their look everyday because of what others might have said. They felt like their look just wasn’t good enough. They had to buy the latest fashions, and have to the most popular hair-do. All they really wanted was for everybody to like them, and give them compliments. If they didn’t get enough compliments
