Cause and Effect

Eating disorders are one of the biggest problems that occur in high school today. People are constantly pushed to be beautiful and strong. Peer pressure is one of the biggest factors that cause eating disorders.

Everyone knows what they want to look like. Whether it is the "buff" football player or the beautiful cheerleader. The media constantly portrays people as perfect human beings. You rarly see a person on television that is fat and ugly. If one person says someone is fat or ugly that person could develop a eating disorder just because of that comment. People who say that others are fat or ugly are just trying to make themselves feel better.

Eating disorders are one of the biggest problems that occur in high school today. So watch what you say to or about someone. Telling other people that they are fat or ugly can ruin that persons life. Or maybe even end it.
