Mistakes teens make:
  
    - trying to be sexy too early before their bodies developed 
- feel ugly because all they see are filtered lives 
- like the wrong boy/girl because they have no self esteem and just want someone to like them 
- take on someone's interest in music or movies just so they'll be liked by them 
- not choose the right special partner for first kiss or other but just the one who will show them attention 
- put themselves in vulnerable situations because of peer pressure 
- comparing themselves and copying others even when all their heroes didn't do that and stand out 
- overthinking 
- being a no person instead of a yes person to potentially fulfilling experiences 
- wasting their creative side on the internet and coming up with no growth as a result 
- seeing failure as a negative and not a spot in the spectrum to eventually succeeding 
- not being able to tell the difference between love, a crush, or a self-esteem needy infatuation 
- being negatively influenced by friends they'll likely not know in their twenties but not taking the thoughts of family who will be there and actually know better 
- unprotected sex because of pressure and then pregnancy 
- ignoring self improvement with school or work: the things that actually can bring authentic self esteem and success in the future (Daydreaming about things that they want, rather than working hard to achieve) 
- not getting out of their freakin’ comfort zones 
- thinking money or fame brings happiness even though there's all the evidence against it 
- not able to express love to family, taking them for granted
