Our Kids and Flaws

M Pears
The world that we live in today in it's own silent way is corrupting our youth of this generation. For example: Why are younger children now thinking about having different types of plastic surgery it could be their stomach area, their nose, even their lips this is a disgrace. Why are today's children starving themselves to be extremely thin as if thin is the best and being bigger is not. Some people say that the parents are at fault but that is in no way possible to be totally true. Letting a child know that some things that you see on the television and magazines is fiction is great, but there needs to be more done because not only are the children getting hooked on a plastic world, but so are some adults. Children do mostly of what they see not alot of what they hear coming from out of a person's mouth action has always been known to speak much louder than words.

Why want some of the stars come out and take a stand especially for the youth that is growing up in this plastic world and show them what real life as a star behind the scene is all about. The stars need to sometime show how that look naturally without all the packed make-up, leave the make-up artist at home and show your true colors. Why would you need a make-up artist 24 hours a day the stars do all this just so they don't have to look like the everyday person. Not all stars but a whole lot of them do this so you will never see them looking normal. Not only the stars but something as simple as commercials are getting to look flawless everybody looks perfect and to the eyesight of a eight, nine, ten, and eleven year old child perfection will be what they are after. Being an adult I know better to not believe everything on television and magazines, but even some adults can easily get caught up in this plastic world. All the surgery and drastic dieting are all just part of what society is showing us that is beauty but unfortunately it is all fake. No surgery or fad diets should never be a option only for the purpose of vanity.

Don't some people understand that beauty is so much more then skin deep you can have the most beautiful face in the world and if you have a bad disposition about yourself you will still be un-pretty. As for today's magazines being totally air brushed not to mention unbelievable the people in the magazines are so re-touched up that they look un-realistic. Today's magazines, television, and let's not leave out those video's will make a young child feel like she can't even have a pimple or if she gains just one pound on the scale she would have to go on some crazy fad diet or chose not to eat at all until she has lose weight. Truth be told this is what society is teaching young children. Your child may not grow up to be a celebrity wanna be only if you start while they are young around age seven letting them know that they are beautiful just the way that are. Install in your child that regardless of what anyone else thinks of your outer appearance you are beautiful no matter what people say. As your child gets older continue to teach them this. This may or may not help but it is always worth the try. A portion of this world is full of fakes, but everybody don't have to be one and people shouldn't have to feel less then for just being them (normal) real.
