Thank you for the links Carly. Im getting caught up after a week chaperoning the Natures Classroom trip – 93 students, 24 girls were under my watchful eye (and suffering ears at night). they all seemed to have fun, which is great; but some of the girls in my dorm – aged 12 – were obsessed with their looks, to the extent that they brought – get this – eyelash curlers and wouldnt leave the dorm before being perfectly made up…for a two hour hike in the WOODS!! Its so sad to see how body image can be influenced in such young girls, after leaving the mirror they looked 16 or older!
