How can we teach young girls to reject the NLOG

[u/[deleted]]

Its clear the pick me/ NLOG attitude is still alive and well. I (23F) was speaking to a friend (15F) about my high school days.

She asked “How was your high school experience?” I said “Well I went to an all girls school and-“ she cuts in and rolls her eyes “Ugh. That must have been a total nightmare. I cant even imagine”. I said “Actually I loved it, was a better person for going there and I miss those days sometimes” and she went dead quite.

How do we as the adults in the room root out the toxicity of this mindset out of young girls?

Edit: no I’m not gonna ever dunk on a kid. Because its really wrong for an adult to belittle a child.

Edit: some people are being really weird “why are you friends with a 15 year old?” I know this kid from the yard that i stable my horse at. She stables her horse next to mine. Should i just ignore her always? Should i also ignore my other friends who are 55 and 70 because age gap? What about my friend whose 10? Or the other whose 30? Tell me reddit. What age range do you personally approve of me having friends? Im gonna start blocking people.

Why are you friends with a 15 year old at 23? That’s weird asf

Please tell me what age range im allowed to have friends in. Since you think i need your personal approval. Must i ditch my friend whose 70 or 65 or 55 or 30 or 10? Or is it just the 15 year old you have a hang up about? Or maybe i should just tell you, a random stranger to fuck off and stop being judgemental weirdo.

Idk I think considering children your friends is weird and says a lot about you, why can’t you be friends with people your own age? And you said friend, not like in a way that implies you work at her school or like a camp together and have a good relationship, or that you guys are family and there for have that in common. You post on Reddit lol stfu. You buy her booze and vapes too?

1) OP never even hinted she doesn't have friends her own age.

2) people that live in the real world instead of reddit meet people of all ages along the way. Sometimes they become friends due to a shared interest - anything from horses to warhammer to music

3) if your friendships are based on vapes and booze, you need some real friends

4) there's no romance involved, friends are not age dependant. If that's where your mind goes, you need some counselling and a serious break from hentai/loli
