All of these options are true. Children receive a lot of messages from media indicating that being physically attractive, conforming to societal norms, and fitting in with the popular crowd are important factors for success and happiness. This can lead to low self-esteem, body image issues, and pressure to conform to unrealistic standards. It is important for parents and caregivers to educate children about the harmful effects of media messages and promote positive self-image and individuality.
