A major challenge for me is having trouble concentrating in school, my phone distracts me a lot. I, sometimes turn off my phone for almost a whole day so I can concentrate in school work.

 Being a Ctr person helps because it makes you feel good about yourself and you have self-esteem. There a lots of ways to help other teens by complementing how they look. And suggest what they should do to solve their problems.

Reflection

The greatest need that teens have today is having your parents listen to you and suggest what you should do next. They also have hotlines to call when you need help on something or you can go and see a therapist for help.
