[quote=Anonymous]Keep your home a safe place where she can escape the pressure of MS/HS social dynamics. You love her for who she is, not her popularity, looks, etc. Don’t put value on or be impressed by her current social status…treat it as a “that’s nice, dear” situation. It will ebb & flow, so don’t teach her to put too much importance on it. (Or give the impression that you love her any more or less related to her popularity.) Continue to praise her for her kindness, her inclusion of others, etc. She’ll do great in the future if she is charismatic & also empathetic & kind. She’ll figure it out- I would just let her do her thing. Don’t place any importance in your family on peer popularity, etc - continue to just encourage hard work & kindness to siblings/others.
