Stress

I think that many teens are way too stressed from parents, school, and the media. Parents may pressure their kids to do well in school, sports, ckubs, etc. Even if they are only trying for encouragement, it might come off a another source of pressure to kids. School is another major pressure, because it affects colleges, which will affect the rest of one's life. The media doesn't help because of ads, commercials, movies, shows, celebrity stories, etc. There are pressure on girls to perfect and pressure on guys as well. I think that stress in teens needs to be dealt with by teens talking to their parents and others about what's stressing them out, and also taking more time to relax.

  1. I agree that there is way too much pressure on college. I know this because I'm only a freshman but I worry about geting good grades and have extracurricular activities for college. You are absolutely right about media pressure. Some girls and guys in high school go to extremes just to make themelves perfect.
