So much pressure, on boys and girls,
To be faultless and flawless, in all aspects.
Grades should be top, body should be envied,
Why are we allowing this level of expected,
Perfection?We should all be attempting, to change the way,
Our children are perceived, each and every day,
By themselves and by others.
It's something that bothers,
Me greatly.Let's teach them the importance, of things unseen,
The ones that are not rated by exams or magazines.
Everyone is responsible, everyone should be accountable,
For promoting a healthy future,
For the youth of today.Image: Searched online - from thepowerofoneness.com
