So? Teach your kid to see this for the pointless posturing it is. Worth little more than an eye roll, if that. Teens who are able to (at least appear to) not care about this stuff benefit from being able to remain unaffected by social drama or leverage it to their benefit.[/quote]

This.  It's HARD, I get it, but the less they care about this stuff, the better off they are.  We all went through it, but not as publicly.  My older teen daughter really doesn't care all that much about being popular and I'm so thankful for that.  She's on social media and talks about likes and followers and all of that, but she's not obsessed with it the way some teens are.  My younger teen daughter is ALL about being popular, worrying what people are saying about her, or thinking, or what she's missing out on, what people are wearing, etc.  It's draining and doesn't do anyone any good.  I've tried to get her to stop caring a bit, but it's a challenge.[/quote]
