Body image is how a person feels about his or her physical appearance.

Self- esteem is confidence in one's own worth or abilities.

“Someone with a negative body image has a distorted view of his or her body and often feels shame and anxiety.

Almost 54% of American girls and women aged 12 to 23 years old are unhappy with their bodies.

Media (magazines,movies,celebtrities,etc.) Parents (When parents are constantly with

their appearance, it encourages their kids to feel the same way)

Other adults (Peoples comments on when the person is a toddler can have an impact on the way parents feel about their children's body in the future)

Peers (if friends make a negative comment on their body, they are more likely to have a negative body image)

Magazines (skinny models, male models with a good body)

Celebrities (eg.Taylor Swift)

Both are caused by media (magazines, celebrities)

Both can be solved built up) The way you think about your body can affect

your self- esteem

Models Media He or she look at abnormal models (skinny

girls, bulky guys) and he or she compares themselves to them.

He or she looks at themselves in the mirror too much (especially girls)

Point out the pros of yourself (pretty eyes, hair, etc.)

Parents should praise the body their kid has instead of putting them down)
