Consumerism: Consuming our culture, one child at a time
Consumerism is creating insecurities in children, who grow up to think that shopping is the answer to the void they may feel. Ads appear everywhere and we’re exposed to several thousand a day, with digitally altered photos, so our children end up believing that real women should look “perfect.” Children should not be under the pressure to “make” themselves the ideal women or man, as we see in the Evolution video that what you see in the media is not the true woman, but the children walking on the street only see the edited photo. We think this topic is important because parents and young adults should reach out and teach children that everyone is beautiful just the way they are.
