Parenting has never been easy. It seal in the digital age, we have more blind spots to worry about. Tonight, Yahoo! Global news anchor Katie couric takes a look at a tragedy and gives as you glimpse at the world of teens and social media. Nicole was a very lovable person. Tammy weeks was facing the unimagina unimaginable. Her 13-year-old daughter was found dead. She touched many people. A 13-year-old girl making headlines. The search for answers is just beginning. The reaction to her murder has become part of a conversation about girls and social media. Nicole had secretly been messaging with this Virginia tech student. 18-year-old David Eisenhower. On the social media app kick. According to investigators, they say that one night last month, Nicole snuck out of her parents' house the meet up with Eisenhower and never returned home. She was missing for three days until her body was discovered 80 miles away. A very preliminary determination of the cause of death is stabbing. Nicole's story has become a cautionary tale about the dangers of secret messaging apps and their anonymous users. I'm willing to say kick is the devil for young children. It is like a free ability to text and parents can't see the number going in and out. Eisenhower and an alleged female accomplice are now accused of kidnapping and murder of Nicole. Neither has entered a plea. Nicole's father and step mother sat down with 2020. I wish you could have been there for my daughter. She deserved me to be there and I was not. Nicole's family believes she turned to social media for acceptance after she was severely bullied in school. She had a huge boy crush kind of thing. But it was kind of innocent. She was still a child. And all she wanted was just the attention. We reached out to the people who run kik and they told us, we have zero tolerance for any behavior that potentially affects safety of our users. We offer blocking and reporting tools to allow users to flag unwanted content. We are reviewing all aspects. When this case surfaced, have you heard of kik? Yes. From every girl that I interviewed. But those secret apps are just part of the story. Nancy has been reporting on youth culture for more than a decade. In her new book, American girls, social media and the secret lives of teenagers. She explores the dangers of coming of age in a world ruled by social media. Tell me about the role this is playing in the life of the average teenage girl. One of the first conversations I had with some girls in Los Angeles really set the tone for the whole book. She said social media is destroying our lives. I said so why don't you go off it? She said then I would have no life. She said what she discovered was troubling. Young lives playing out on various platforms that promote negative self-esteem. Sometimes harsh judgment and cyber bullying. Something that 13-year-old Carey has experienced. I got a message on instagram from this guy. He seems like he was my age so I thought could I trust him. He said that he knew some of my friends. I started talking to him and we got really close. The friendship took a turn and Carey decided they should stop communicating. Soon after, she said the boy and one of his friends began writing hurtful things. They were saying these things like you're ugly and cursing me out when they've never met me or know me at all. It really scared me. Her mom decided to do something about it. It had turned out that the person who was actually cyber bullying her was not the boy but a friend of his who he was manipulating. And she had sort of taken on this crusade to get back at my daughter for no reason. I spoke to this woman. And I said your daughter is cyber bullying my child. And so she promised me it would never happen again. That she would talk to this kid's parents. And thankfully that did put an end to it. How has social media krebed to the notion of cyber bullying? Almost every girl has been cyber bullied. They didn't necessarily call it that because it didn't lead to something. Sale says social media has become a popularity contest. Where teens seek validation from the pictures they post and the number of like they receive. She says it is having a major impact on how teenage girls view themselves. 18-year-old Olivia agrees. I got over 150 likes. Oh, you know, what a good picture I took. And then if you post a photo that you think is good as well and you don't get a the love likes, oh, my god. Should I take this down? She said she met some girls who spend hours taking pictures of themselves and manipulating the images. We asked Olivia to show us how some of these apps work. I can whiten my teeth. A whiter smile. If I wanted to be super blond. You can make yourself look more slender. I can make my arm thinner. What some people don't realize is that, look at the door. It's not supposed to look like that. But she says she tries to use these apps sparingly. Sometimes if my voice gets really oily, I'll do that. But I don't reshape my body. How about this depression we're hearing about among teenagers? Think about it. If what you are thinking about is do I look hot? Am I going to get liked on this photo? These the constant thoughts being raised in teenage girls' minds through their use of social media. It is not soothing. It is not something that produces a feeling of well being or security. Both Olivia and Carey's moms say talking to their children about social media behavior is critically important. Basically, your tarnlg wants to know they are part of the conversation. This is the way the kids will communicate. This is way life is. And you need to have the channels of communication open. You need to educate them as early as possible. As to what the dangers are. For "Nightline," Katie couric in Los Angeles. Nancy's book, American girls is on sale now. Up next, a look ahead to a special event on "Nightline"
