Image of social media on girls

The article has mentioned that the average amount of time teen girls spend on media were around 180 minutes daily, and only about 10 minutes of parental interaction a day. And basically about girls having dangerous eating disorders and very low self-esteem based on the influence of media images.

Father and mother are a girl's first and often the most influential role model. Parents opinion plays an important role on their children's behavior. Especially for girls. 

Girls take to heart what their mothers say about people and their bodies. But on the other hand, fathers also plays an influential role in shaping their daughters' self-image. Because a daughter learns how to relate to men by the way she relates to her father. Girls pay attention to how parents respond to media images, so parents should always be careful with the comments they give to those thin and sexy women on the internet and magazines.
