url:
Howtochill.ca is an interactive website for teen girls full of tips on how to deal with stress. The Child Development Institute, in partnership with parents and communities conducted a research project with 50 girls in Toronto to determine what makes them stressed, what does it feel like and what to do to cope with it.
Stress-related issues explored include:
- Pressure to do well in school
- Pressure to fit in with their friends and measure up to other people's expectations
- Problems with family, friends or in dating relationships
- Taking on too many things at the same time
- Having to decide what they're going to do when they leave school; and
- Pressure to try alcohol or drugs or to have sex
