“Does chocolate cause pimples?”
“What do I do if the kids at school make fun of me?”
“My friend eats fast food and junk food all the time, but she looks great. Does someone like her need to eat healthy?”

Every young woman has questions like these. Having questions is a sign that girls are growing up. It shows that they want to take care of themselves.
