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
