Good Old Mom

 

"Now listen, and believe me, I am not just saying this because I'm your mother- You are the prettiest, nicest girl in the entire school, not to mention the brightest and if you don't believe me just go look in the mirror. I happen to know that there are dozens of young men who would give their eye teeth to go out with a wonderful girl like you. Boys are shy too, you know. Don't you worry, someday your ship will come in."
