“I want them to feel good about themselves inside and out. That’s why I do what I do,” Vasquez said.
Vasquez said the timing is important, especially since experts note that risky behaviors among teenagers pick up significantly during the summer.
“Adolescents, in general, their brain is not fully developed," said Shantala Boss, a licensed mental health counselor.
Boss says this mean they are more likely to "engage in risky behavior without thinking about consequences…Without following through with what could happen."
