Today there is more pressure than ever on young girls to be physically perfect. Peer pressure is overwhelming. We see this reflected in the media all around us.
Research shows a link between a mother's influence and her daughter's ideas about health and body confidence. If mothers can become more aware of their attitudes towards their own bodies and those of their daughters, they can help their daughters stand up to powerful influences in our culture that undermine their own sense of beauty and self-worth.
October 22 - 24th, across the country there is a movement - The Dove Movement of Self-Esteem! You can find events going on and a vast amount of social media to help build self-esteem and change the world one girl at a time.
