Fat, ugly, change your appearance, you're pretty but...Words have a massive affect on body image, once something is said it will be remembered. I've been called names before and made fun of and it has always stuck with me. close your eyes, remember the time someone said something that put a burden on your self-esteem. Did it hurt? i'm sure it did. I can't believe we are living in a world where we can say horrible comments on someone else's shape or look, how disgusting? Too many people suffer from the effects of negative body image and we need to do something about it! Imagine a world where everyone celebrated there look and felt proud of it

Poor Body image stems from social media, 88% of girls compare themselves to that perfect picture that they see on there feed, 66% of boys do the same thing. 1 in 5 Aussie kids have social media. No wonder why Poor body image number are huge! The more time children spend on social media gives them a higher risk of Depression, Anxiety, Eating disorders and in the worst of cases suicide. 68% of Photos on social media are edited or photoshopped so what you're scrolling through is not most of the time real. Imagine a world where social media was a place to love people for who they are.

Negative body image studies are mainly focused around girls, but can effect boys just as much! You expect boys to be  tougher, stronger, muscley, more sport than girls, this is the image that they are meant to be. Boys can feel pressured by this image, 80% of men are dissatisfied with their muscularity and 40% are anxious about there weight. That really says something! Some men say "it is just as hard to be Ken as it is to be Barbie." Imagine a world where boys don´t have to be muscular, just themselves.

Poor body image is mostly inflicted on children at a young age, parents push there children to be skinny, look perfect, make them play a sport and give constant pep talks of what they can and can not do, some parent say, when my child doesn't look the part it's a reflection themselves. When really parents are being self-absorbed and destroying there child's mental health and self-esteem. one study of Adolescent girls showed that over half were teased by there family because of there weight and appearance. This is unacceptable! 21% of boys in a second survey reported that there family caused them worry over there image. can anyone see how bad this is? Imagine a world where parents adore there children for who they are.

Negative Body image effects everyone at some point in there life, everyone is in the same boat. So how can we build each other up and have positive body image ourselves? I think the easiest one of all is to give compliments, you never know what is going on behind the scenes , stop looking in the mirror at all those tiny imperfections, you're perfect, imagine a world where the mirror doesn't define you.

Imagine a world where you can go out and wear that perfect dress you just bought. Imagine a world where you can go and where you can where your new shoes because you don't care what people say. Imagine a world where you can love everyone for who they are. These are my wishes for the world. imagine a world.

I see a young boy handing his diary out to a lady for the toilet, one by one ripping pages. I'm glad there's still some people that aren't as bad as the Nazis, I need some pages for the toilet too but I'm afraid to ask and don't want to use his prized possession. Instead I hide beside a young child who looks like he's going to puke. Who knows where this carriage will take us, we have been treated so poorly that I don't know how we're not dead. I'm praying there'll be a light at the end of the tunnel and not just ongoing darkness. I miss Mum and Dad but I can't stop promising myself it'll be ok. For the rest of the ride I decided to keep my mouth shut because if I talk, it's almost like waving my hands in the air and saying ¨kill me, kill me!¨. The only emotion to describe how I feel is scared.

Really scared.

I can feel my eyelids start to turn dark, I don't want to but I have to, I haven't slept for over 48 hours. God, please protect me.

I wake up and immediately my eyes start darting around me. My neck feels tight, so I look up. Nazis squeezing my neck hard. Maybe I fell asleep for just a second and I couldn't sleep there?

It all sounds so silly! Is this really what jews have to put up with? The Nazi boomed aggressively at me saying ¨no sleep¨ I can't even process what he's saying because my neck feels like it's about to cripple. All over a jewish boy sleeping. I can feel tears and soft whimpers coming from me. I glanced over the Nazis shoulder, The boy handing out his diary was miming something to me. I couldn't make sense of what he was saying. Then the little girl beside him blurts out ¨Don't you know anything we are trying to save you and that's facts!¨ The Nazi throws me to the ground and walks off.

The young boy cautiously helps me up and speaks ¨im Felix!¨ I smiled back at him. Felix asks me what my name is ¨im Jack!¨ I whispered. A look of Terror is present on my face and I think Felix can see that. Zelda continues to look me up and down with her arms crossed. Felix starts walking through the concentration camp and I decide to follow.

All I can think about every step of the way is, I utterly hate the Nazis, they are almost like entitled little rodents who think they can do whatever they want. What really boils my blood is that Nazis don't have a problem in the world. They never starve and live in massive houses. If I could change the world I would make the Nazis starve, maybe that would repay them for the hurt they've caused.
