Teens are more likely to have a lower self esteem as they are more entertained by celebrities. Girls and guys are influenced a lot with what is on magazines and tv shaping their mind to want to look like some one else and compare themselves on their looks and other aspects like wealth, careers. By comparing themselves to others will make them feel down about themselves giving them low self esteem.
