As we're growing up we must learn to master and enjoy our physical bodies.  Think back to your Elementary School years, how were you as an athlete?  Did you tend to be chosen for teams or excluded? What games or activities did you like and excel at?  How did you feel about yourself physically and athletically?  How did these feelings about your body and skills impact you socially and emotionally?  Do you feel you had leadership skills and were these related at all to your feelings about your body?  How did parents/ peers/ siblings impact this aspect of your development?
