Chapter 1: Self-Esteem

-self-esteem reflects a person's overall subjective emotional evaluation of his or her own worth. It is a judgment of oneself as well as an attitude toward the self.
Body image - how you view your physical self — including whether you feel you are attractive and whether others like your looks.
How does self esteem affect body image?
Self-esteem is important because feeling good about yourself can affect your mental health and how you behave, if you have a great self esteem you will see yourself in a positive way, but if you have bad self esttem you will see your body In a negative way and point out all your flaws.
Experiences
-From experience I have noticed that if you want to feel good about yourself and build yourself esteem, you can not listen to what your peers (a person who is equal to another in abilities, qualifications, age, background, and social status.)have to say. You Have to be positive and surround yourself with positive vibes so that you can see yourself in a positive way. If you surround yourself with negative people and always listen to they have to say you will find yourself complaining about your body in the mirror.
- I have also learned that if you have a better self esteem you are more likely to be happy and stay that way for a long time.
Things that can affect your self esteem
- Physical development
- Appearance
- Grades
- Relationships with friends or parents
- Racism
- Sexism (attitudes or behavior based on traditional stereotypes of gender roles)
- Homophobia

-Physical violence. One partner uses force to get his or her way.
How to get out of a bad relationship
When you are in a relationship you should really be your true self. If you can not be your true self with the other dating partner then you should not be dating him/ her.
If you are in a bad relationship you should break up with him/ her gently enough, but in a stern way so they know they cant keep coming back to you over and over again.
Personal experience
From personal experience I have learned that relationships are not that simple at all. You have to give your other partner a lot of attention and be their rock. It is really hard especially with juggling school and sports.
I have also learned that if there are signs that they most likely are and you should break up with them right then and there because if you don't, they know that they have you wrapped around their finger and will keep taking advantage of you over and over again and that isn't okay.
Chapter 3: Sexting

Sexting ,the sending of sexually explicit photos, images, text messages, or e-mails by using a cell phone or other mobile device, may seem like no big deal and that everyone does it, but it does have its consequences. In this chapter you will learn what sexing is, the consequences of it, and how dangerous it really is.
What is sexting?
Sexting is sending sexually explicit (naked pictures of yourself) messages via cell phone or instant messenger.
How is sexting used?
Sexting is used when anyone sends nude pictures of themselves to another. They can do this by texting, emailing, social media (websites and other online means of communication that are used by large groups of people to share information) ... just about anything electronically.

Dangers of sexting
Many teen do not know there are emotional and legal consequences of sexting. Emotionally, sexting can take a toll on a person, especially if it backfires and gets into the wrong hands. Sexting may lead to bullying for the teen whose photos have been shared to others. This can make them upset and this depression, a condition of general emotional dejection and withdrawal, could potentially lead to thoughts of suicide, the intentional taking of one's own life.
If the police find it you can end up in juvi. First you would go to court and they would have the pictures there and discuss then and why you did it
Chapter 4: Dating violence

Dating isn't always what it seems. on the outside looking in, you can not always tell if a person is actually happy. a person could be being abused by their partner and you might never find out,. in this chapter you will learn about violence, the cycle of violence and how to get help if you are being abused.
The three stages of violence and what happens in each stage
stage 1: tension building- In this phase the abuser may be extremely critical, bullying, moody and demanding. The individual experiencing violence still feels some control over the situation.
stage 2: battering- In this phase, the abuser’s behavior escalates to physical or extreme emotional violence and the individual may feel completely helpless in controlling the escalation
stage 3: "honeymoon"- In this phase, the abuser may repeatedly express what appear to be genuine feelings of remorse and may shower his partner with attention or gifts
Resources for help
There are plenty of resources to get help if you or anyone you know is being abused in a relationship. You can call hotlines, go to emergency shelters, a place where women can stay if needed, call the police, or just tell one of your close friends or relatives so you can get out of the relationship.
personal experience
If I was being abused I would go to a trusted adult, and try to find a way out of the relationship. I would cut off all contact and change numbers if things were really bad. Lastly, I would try and tell someone who could talk to him/her about the way they are behaving.
