We are students from Centennial College taking Early Childhood Education. We are conducting this petition to raise awareness on the subject of body image and the media, and how it affects the youth of our generation. We feel that images portrayed in the media are having too much of a negative connotation on our youth which is causing them to focus too much on adult type stresses as appose to just being a child.

The momentum is incredible. Seeing this many people back the cause proves we are striking a nerve.

Its honestly sad seeing 10 year olds worrying about makeup and weight. they should be playing outside not looking at instagram models.
