They wouldn't be out of the loop if enough other girls did the same thing. They you'd have your own group.

Let’s be honest though. That would simply never work. You’d have to get a group of teen girls to make a pact to all be out of the loop. Not one of them can sneak a peek at social media!

Knowing what teens are like I’d say that experiment would last a week. Social media is addictive probably even more so for teens and fomo is real
