I try to explain to my 12-year-old daughter that, believe it or not, by the time she's in her twenties and thirties, most of the kids she knows now--however pretentious or silly or mean-spirited or gross or awkward or annoying or self-centered they can be at times--will turn out to be adults who she may actually like. She believes me, I think, though the long-view doesn't really help with "dramas" of the moment, like when another girl tells her that she may have to pick another bat mitzvah party over hers because she wants to be "popular" in her school. [Ouch!]
