I know that I, personally, was obsessed with how others saw me and what others thought of me when I was a child and a teenager. I spent a lot of time thinking about that moment I’d step out of my mom’s car in the morning at the drop off zone, and first impressions the other kids would get of my outfit. Today, kids don’t even get a break from the judgment and observation of others. They put everything on social media.
