Scenario 1 - Girl and Parent Impact

Sometimes your parent says things about how you dress that hurts your feelings. You have a very unique sense of style that is not always “traditional.” You like to express yourself through your clothing, your hair styles, and the colors that you wear. This sometimes causes a clash between you and your parent. At times, it makes you question your unique form of expression.

Reflection Questions:

In this scenario, how could you communicate to your parent how this makes you feel? Describe what a conversation could look and sound like.

Do you think that your parent or guardian has an impact on your self esteem? Why or why not?
