Step-by-step explanation:

When a teens' self-esteem is low, they are likely to get into peer pressure, start making poor choices, and at higher risk of being bullied. According to a study in 2008, 7 out of 10 girls from the ages of 15-17 claim they do not measure up in some way whether it's looks, performance in school, or relationships.
