 * It's hard to be a teenager these days? Especially when fashion is involved. HOW DOES FASHION NEGATIVELY INFLUENCE PRETEENS?** **TODAY'S FASHION NEGATIVELY INFLUENCE PRETEENS BECAUSE OF THINGS SUCH AS MEDIA, PEER PRESSURE, AND ROLE MODELS.**

=**"While nobody can deny that Facebook has altered the landscape of social interaction, particularly among young people, we are just now starting to see solid psychological research demonstrating both the positives and the negatives," said [|Larry D. Rosen, PhD], professor of psychology at California State University, Dominguez Hills. ** MEDIA ALSO CHANGES HOW THE CHILDREN ACT OR SPEAK OR EVEN DRESS. LIKE FOR EXAMPLE CELEBRITIES LIKE [|MEGAN FOX] AND BEYONCE HAVE A GREAT FIGURE AND THAT MIGHT BE A NEGATIVE INFLUENCE ON PRETEENS. TEENAGERS MIGHT THINK THAT THE WAY THEY DRESS IS THE WAY PEOPLE PERCEIVE THEM AS. IN A RECENT SURVEY BY TEEN PEOPLE MAGAZINE [|27% OF THE GIRLS] FEEL THAT THE MEDIA PRESSURES THEM TO HAVE THE PERFECT BODY. THEY ARE MOVIES LIKE SUPER SIZE ME WHO PRESSURE GIRLS TO HAVE THE PERFECT BODY. =
 * THE MEDIA HAS A BIG IMPACT ON PRETEENS. FOR EXAMPLE ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT ENCOURAGES THE YOUNGER GENERATION TO HAVE THE PERFECT BODY WHICH MIGHT GIVE KIDS EATING DISORDERS SUCH AS ANOREXIA AND BULIMIA.**

Another reason that fashion negatively influences preteens is peer pressure. For example, kids feel pressured by everything around them such as sex, drugs, and smoking. they style of dress is yet another area that kids contend among there peers. the intense pressure to fit in might increase depending on what situation they are in. when a child reaches there teen years they are more interested on what's the hottest fashion which might come off there peers. fashion comes from peer pressure. you would wear something that you feel comfortable with but then your afraid of what your friends might think so you change your clothes so your friends won't judge you.

The last reason that fashion negatively influences preteens is role models. what i mean by that is celebrities use the internet directly to communicate with their fans.
