Now you see, children, your socio-economic status, which you as teenagers will have next to zero ability to meaningfully impact is perhaps the single greatest indicator of your social value among your peers. If you find yourself impoverished, simply find a classmate of even lower status to ostracized and socially isolate in the hope that the juxtaposition will place you higher within this animalistic hierarchy and win the acclaim of your betters.

Marion did nothing wrong and there's nothing wrong with her. Teenagers just suck in general, and they got off on making vulnerable targets like her suffer. People who look back on their high school years with fondness are insane.
