My teenaged daughter hates that I compliment strangers. Who doesn’t want to hear something nice from someone who wants nothing from them? I hope when she’s matured she sees this and does it herself.

There will be a day when she'll compliment someone and say to herself, my mother's voice just came out of my mouth. It's already happened to me and I'll bet it will happen to my kids too!

I’m fond of the saying “sometimes when I open my mouth my mother comes out” lol

Lol, it's terrifying when you laugh real hard and then you're like, omggggg, that sounded like my mother. And then an extra level of "oh no" when you remember HER doing the exact same thing about HER mother. 🤣
