Teenage acne. |

I have recently given a fourteen year old girl A cleanser and toner. All natural products and these are all she needs at the moment to help her clear up her face. Her mother is not interested in any of these things and has said to me that it is
all just commercialism and none of it works anyway. So this means that she is letting her child go through her high school years being picked on and left out of things that she would otherwise be a part of. Teenagers can be extremely cruel about this subject.
My uncle had acne cistitis which is really horrible for the person having to experience it not just for the physical side of it but because of the emotional side. My uncle was teased so much, had so many people be very nasty and abuse him that he ended up leaving school because he could no longer take the abuse. I watched him become more and more unhappy ( he is only six years older we grew up more like brother and sister than uncle and neice ). I swore I would never let my children go through this pain and sufferring.
As soon as my daughter showed signs of acne I got her to use a natural cleanser and toner. They are not cheap but the brand I use is really great and lasts for ever. It is all natural and it has cleared her face up no problems. ( I sell this product so if you want more info just let me know ).
So when I noticed that this young girl was not happy at school and having to deal with basically the same issues that my uncle did. I acted and gave her the cleanser and toner for christmas with instructions on how to use it and I received a thank you text message from her saying that she loved the present. This made me very happy as now I know that there is one less child out there who is going to leave scholl because of the nasty things teenagers can do to other teenagers.
It dosn't take much to help your child be happy and I think that too many parents ignore how hard it can be for teenagers to get through every day life. I have heard people say that there must be something wrong at home for a teenager to commit suicide but I know of two cases in my very small home town where it had nothing to do with thier families it was other teenagers that were the cause. So please don't dismiss the things your teenager says just because it is not what you would get upset about because it can be just those things that are really upsetting your child.
My uncle has contemplated suicide far too many times. I really hope this helps someone, anyone.
