My son had an Android phone. I don't think anyone considered him to be a loser, but he did get very sick of everyone why he had a green bubble.

I'm shocked your son and his friends were using iMessage, even in the US. My teens are using Snapchat/IG/TikTok mostly for messaging.

iMessage or SMS is exclusively how they communicate with their parents.

I have a green bubble because I don't want to live in a walled garden. I'd like to think there are still youth social circles where that'd get you clout.
