In order to have a healthy relationship of any kind - whether it be a dating relationship, friendship or a relationship with a parent or teacher - you've first got to have a healthy relationship with yourself. So, in the spirit of loving ourselves in order to better love others, some members of the IDEA Youth Board have decided to share some things that they love about themselves...
Tell me one thing you love about yourself.
Kaitlyn Carpentier, Canton High School - My confidence :)
