The generations that came after the baby boomers tend to have less confidence in themselves; because the Internet and social media affect self-confidence in people.

Today, the younger generation, especially girls, has the lowest level of confidence because social media has made them insecure about their bodies and beauty. This is the result of the apps that modify their body, face, and hair, making them something that they are not.

(People used to know you for who you are in real life, not for who you are in some images that do not reflect reality.)
