Summary:

The media is saturated with images of thin, beautiful women, and exposure to these images has given rise to a new generation of girls who feel an intense pressure to be "perfect." The Body Image Workbook for Teens offers teen girls practical exercises and tips that address the most common factors that contribute to a negative body image, including: comparison, negative self-talk, unrealistic media images, societal and family pressures, perfectionism, and the fear of disappointing others.
