Media Effects on Teenagers - 0 views

  • Negative Media Effects on Teenagers There are several negative media effects on teenagers as well. Media is responsible for creating ideals about body image, owing to which several teenagers (especially girls) suffer from inferiority complex and resort to unhealthy practices to lose weight and get skinny. The amount of excessive violence in media – be it the television, movies or the video games, tends to increase aggressive tendencies in teenagers. The amount of celebrity hype created by the media causes many children to make irrational demands for designer clothing, accessories and other perks of the celebrity life that they are exposed to. Glorification of unhealthy habits like smoking, drug abuse, unprotected sex and alcohol can encourage these habits in teenagers, which can permanently scar their lives.

Body Image Teens and the Media - 0 views

  • Advertising in teen magazines and on television typically glamorizes skinny models who do not resemble the average woman. In fact, today's models generally weight 23% less then the average woman. Considering the average person in the United States sees approximately 3,000 ads in magazines, billboards, and television every day, your teenager is getting the wrong message about body image much too often.

Teenage Pregnancy - 0 views

  • In Kristin’s* case, she was deeply in love with her boyfriend and believed they would get married someday. Kristin’s boyfriend said he loved her, and he seemed like a great guy the whole time they were dating, but he wouldn’t have anything more to do with Kristin after she told him she was pregnant and, to make matters even worse, he denies that he fathered the baby Kristin is carrying.

      What does Jesus have to do with teenage pregnancy?
  • Amazingly, Jesus did not accuse her or pick up a stone to throw at her. Instead, he turned to her accusers and said, "Let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone." One by one, the crowd left, and only the woman and Jesus remained. Jesus asked her where her accusers had gone and whether any of them had condemned her. She answered that they had not condemned her. Then Jesus said "Neither do I. Go and sin no more." (To read the whole story see John 8:3-11.)

      I'm a bit skeptical of this site. The ads are a red flag for me. Even though the people behind it are supposedly "experts," this is a field where a lot of people claim to be experts when they aren't. It might be okay, but double-check everything.
