The advice you'd give your younger self as a survey suggests more girls are unhappy
- Published
More than a third of 10 to 15-year-old girls are unhappy with their appearance, according to the Children's Society's annual report.
And 14% are unhappy with their lives as a whole.
The proportion of unhappy boys remained at 20% and 11% respectively.
What is it that makes girls so unhappy and if you had the chance to speak to your younger self, what advice would you give her?
Listen to your mum and dad more
Heather, a 24-year-old from Newcastle says "their advice is priceless".
And Anna from Devon agrees "mum's always right, as annoying as it is".
'Embrace life, embrace being yourself'

She thinks her younger self worried too much about what people thought of her.
Twenty-year-old Georgie from Devon also has some positive words to share with herself.
What advice would you give your younger self?
"Be more confident in yourself and don't be put off trying something new."
