How to Live the "Perfect" Teen Life

Ever wished you could have a better life? While no one should tell you how to live your life, or that your life is bad, if you want, you can change it so you can fit the life of your dreams.

Be confident. If you hide back, you can't get yourself out there and experience life at its fullest. Everyone has something they want to change about themselves, and that's ok, but don't let it ruin you. Don't give up hope if you can't seem to be happy or confident in yourself. Don't be a wallflower; get out and dance. Don't worry.

Be friendly. In real life, the outgoing girls are the popular ones, not the ones everyone hates, so be nice, and people will appreciate your social skills. Wave to people you know in the hall, hug your friends, and smile at everybody else.

Be social. One way to be a happy teen is to have friends and be social. Spend more time with people. Go out to eat, or go spend a day outside in the world meeting new people. Don't be afraid to take chances; if you get yourself out there and take every opportunity you are given, you won't regret it.

Have a good personal style. Follow the trends and always dress nicely and look presentable. Wear clothes that look good on you, and above all, keep it classy.

Have nice hygiene. Use shampoos and conditioners made for your hair type, and shower every other day. Shower with a hydrating body wash. Brush your teeth regularly. Always make sure you shave and put on makeup that suits your face.

Throw and attend parties. Everyone loves a good party-goer, and organizing a fantastic event can make you the most popular girl in school.

"Meet Sultana Nazif"

My name is Sultana Nazif, I am 17 years old. I was born in December (best month of the year) I loveee reading books and am also a planner I always like to be organised. The apps on my phone are arranged from darker colours to lighter colours. I am studying to become an Engineer InshaAllah. I have six younger siblings I hate when things don’t go my way and i like being in control. I try my best to be nice to everyone I also love listening to music I am so Indecisive 😂. I think African teenagers nowadays are very diverse with their sense of style and fashion statements, both girls and boys! Everyone should be able to dress how ever they want to and should feel free of being judged. For what they wear because at the end of the day you only have to please yourself. Do you and stay true to you because there are gonna be haters anyway🤪

"Meet Beauty Queen Imani Shagari"

I’m Imani Shagari , a student reading Architecture and I’m one of twenty other children. Coming from a big family has shown me how important supporting other people can be to their growth. I constantly live by the quote “Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.” It motivates me to help and support people without feeling afraid or threatened by their growth. Instead it helps me to see the best in people and that everyone has their own gifts , we just need each other to help show those gifts. As a young black girl, I would encourage other girls just like me to love themselves and also believe that they are beautiful without the beauty standards set up by society and social media.

What Do Older Generations Misunderstand About Teenagers Today?

What stereotypes about teenagers do the adults you know seem to hold? How does the media portray people your age — and what, in your opinion, do they get wrong? What do you wish you could explain to adults in general to dispel some of these beliefs? In “ Taking Away the Phones Won’t Solve Our Teenagers’ Problems ,” a psychology professor writes about rising levels of anxiety and stress: Teenagers are struggling with anxiety more than any other problem, and perhaps more than ever before. There’s a good chance that it is anxiety that is driving teenagers (and the rest of us) to escape into screens as a way to flee fears. Across most types of anxiety runs a common thread — difficulty coping with feelings of uncertainty: something today’s teenagers have more than their fair share of. They have uncertain economic lives: Unlike previous generations, they can anticipate a worse economic future than their parents. They’ve also grown up with uncertain truths and unre
