Good clothes, academics, money, brands, travel destinations. Because of such unhealthy competitions children suffer from massive stress which further has worse consequences.

This study thus stated about the ratio that suffers from skin problems due to excessive mental stress. According to psychologists this stress can be channelized and all these issues can be resorted with some dedication. They say that today’s generation is low on peace and certainly short on self-satisfaction. They are not satisfied with what they have. Situations like these forcefully push children towards stress. Psychologists believe if the children could start following the simple strategy of working they might be able to lose the hells which they think keep breaking on them.

Dr. Krupa Shankar, Bangalore is an renowed dermatologist states that often I see youngsters with skin problems, they don’t have any genetic issue nor are they exposed to extreme conditions.
