teens' self image and media

i think that teens should love who they are not who people want them to be! if you act like someone else then you are acting like a hypocrite! everyone hate hypocrites! because they say one thing and then go do a whole other thing! like for instance you go and say that you love the way you look according to who your with and then go to another friend! i think that, that is really bad because you are like being a bad person to yourself and to your friend! you should really be who you want to be not who other people want you to be! you also shouldnt judge someone by the way they look because you have no idea of what they have to live like being all upset with themselves of how they look! and people that are making fun of someone makes them feel even worse! so they go look on the computer or on the televison and try to look like them! they starve themself or do other things to their body to make themselves look like that! its really bad when you dont likek the way you look because thats how you were born and how you were born to look! if you want to change how you look then thats kinda bad because you hate yourself enough to change how you really look! when you dont like the way you look you lose your self confidence! if that happens then you cant ever like the way you look! like me i used to feel like i wasnt important and i thought that nobody liked me so i did stuff to myself  but one day i decided to change and i went to counciling for that too because i felt like i actually wanted to be myself and no one else! i figured out that i wanted to be me foster mckinley thurston! and thats who im gunna be from now on until i die! im never gunna do what i did to myself again and i hope that everyone does the same and dont want to be anyone but who you were born to be so dont let media get in the way of that!
