Publisher's Summary:
Premarital sex. Drugs. Dating violence. Dropping out of school. So many choices, good and bad, are available for youth in America today, and girls continue to be especially vulnerable. They often blame themselves for things that go wrong in their lives, even when it's not their fault. They ask, 'What's wrong with me?', or they hear, 'What's wrong with you?' and brace themselves for the denigrating comments to follow. It's a timeless theme: girls grow up in every generation struggling with self-esteem, confidence, body image issues, uncertainty about dating, and insecurity about their identities.
Where do they turn for answers or role models? Friends and peers don t make for such great influences and mentors when they are floundering themselves. Images of women of color in the media (TV and music videos) reinforce an impossible ideal and lack of self-esteem. How do girls today make decisions that will positively impact their future and not become victims of their surroundings? How can they affirm their Christianity proudly and not succumb to the deteriorating values of modern society?
In this empowering Christian self-help book, Allen weaves her memoir from 20 years of journaling with lessons that still ring true for girls today, about such topics as accepting their identity, adopting a healthy body image, dating relationships, dealing with toxic friends and family members, avoiding or delaying premarital sex, building self-esteem, developing a positive attitude, dressing for success, setting goals, spending money wisely, handling anger and depression, and embracing their singleness, discovering their life purpose, and keeping God first.

Very informative. Opens your eyes up to see that there is nothing at all wrong with you. Everyone is different. Don't be so hard on yourself.
the book is not meant for teenagers
this book seems aimed at younger girls, not teenagers. My teenager laughed at the content, and lessons. She knew these lessons years ago. Her words not mine.
Awesome
Love it, it is an awesome app and I do not know if I could live without it, very helpful
Another Mentoring Guide for Girls
"What's wrong with me?" Have you ever asked yourself that question? Chances are that at least some point you have. Author Daree Allen not only asked herself that question during her teen years, but she also filled many journals with her experiences. Recently, she reread the entries as part of her research for a book she wished to write to encourage girls to have self-esteem and to make a positive impact. The result is part self-help book and part mentoring book about the lessons Allen has learned. Despite some flaws, What's Wrong With Me? is an inspirational and practical guide.
The strength of What's Wrong With Me? lies in Allen's personal approach. Almost every adolescent girl knows what it's like to be teased for her appearance, whether it's her hair or clothes or weight. So does Allen, especially because most of her clothes were made by her mother. Some friends were in awe; others teasingly asked if her mother made her underwear too. Most girls also know what it's like to fight the bulge. So does Allen.
