These days, young girls are feeling the pressure of our society’s stereotypical view of beauty. The majority of girls (seven in ten) feel they do not measure up in some way including their looks, performance in school and relationships. The added pressure results in some girls with low self-esteem engaging in harmful and destructive behavior that can leave a lasting imprint on their lives. As parents, we can play our part to help by educating our children that there is a wider and healthier definition of real beauty.

In response to the self-esteem crisis, Dove Self Esteem Fund was launched to bring self-esteem programming to girls across the country and to encourage everyone to make a difference in the lives of girls. With a goal to reach 5 million girls globally by 2010 through its self-esteem programming, let’s help Dove by supporting and promoting a wider definition of beauty, either through your blog or through educating your children.

Moms and mentors can start boosting a girl’s self esteem right now by visiting www.campaignforrealbeauty.com to download the following free self-esteem building tools:

• True You and Mirror, Mirror booklets
