I knew someone in HS who was a very nice person, but seems so "into"
herself, commenting on her physical features (which were very nice,
but you don't want that person to constantly point them out to you as
if you can't see). She invited me to visit and then I found out where
she got it from. Her mother was constantly saying those things to
her. IOW her mother taught her that her self-worth was her looks.

As parents, we need to monitor what we say (both good and bad) because
children are sponges.
