Made by Beatriz Valente 10ºC

Introduction

Adolescence is a time of many changes, both physical and emotional, which influence the way teenagers view their own body image. In this project, we will explore the problems related to body image, the causes of insecurities and ways to promote a positive self-image.

Teenagers' relationship with their bodies

Teenagers go through physical and emotional changes that affect the way they see their own bodies. During this phase, appearance becomes an important concern, influenced by beauty standards and social media. These comparisons often generate insecurities, but they can also motivate teens to develop a healthier relationship with their own bodies.

It's not easy not to be affected by these problems, but we shouldn't compare ourselves with others, because everyone has their own imperfections. Nobody is perfect, and everyone is perfect in their own way.

Conclusion

In conclusion, body image is something that affects all teenagers and it's important to remember that nobody is perfect. We must accept ourselves as we are and realise that we are unique in our own way, because true beauty comes from accepting ourselves as we are.

the greatest form of beauty is when you feel good about yourself
