Today, children are too often influenced by the media, peers, fashion ... According to Jenna, the duty of any parent is to help your child enter the adult world prepared. That's why she decided to share tips that, in her opinion, each mother should give to her daughter.

1 . Learn the word "no"
Of course, I do not like it when you say this word to me, but in the adult world you will have to make an infinite number of difficult choices. Boys, beer, inappropriate photos in Instagram - potential problems will occur on your way everywhere.

Do you already know this quiet inner voice, which often tells you that you are doing wrong? Listen to him. Respect it. And, most importantly, use it to say "no." It will not be easy to do today, tomorrow and for a long time, but in the end you will understand that you did the right thing.

2 . Pay more attention to inner, not external beauty
Be proud of your appearance and strive to become even more beautiful - it's wonderful. But if you only care about external beauty, then in the future it will do you a disservice.

You're damn beautiful, it's true, but never forget that it's a gift of nature, not your merit. Truly beautiful can only be called a kind and caring person who is able to empathize with others. If you are beautiful outwardly, but stale in the shower, know: you can never call yourself a beauty.

3 . Things can not make you happy
It is at the moment when you are so eager to get a bandanna, a skateboard, a cool bag or something, you passionately believe that these things will make you happy. But at some point everything goes wrong. You may accidentally lose these things. They can break or wear. They can go out of fashion.

Remember: happiness comes from the understanding that you have everything you need, and not because you are the owner of a heap of trinkets.

4 . Some girls are cheesy girls
Be very careful when choosing your girlfriends. Girls can be spiteful, petty, jealous and cruel. Some of them may lie to you, pretend to be your friends, and then strike you in the back and you will feel a wild pain and disappointment every time this happens. Be ready for this.
