[quote=Anonymous]I got tons of affection and praise privately. But when were on front of people, they downplayed my achievements. For example, when I was the valedictorian, and people who tell me I was very smart, my mom was sort of shrug and say I worked really hard. Well when I modeled as a child and through high school, strangers would run up to me and say how beautiful I was. My mom would say thank you awkwardly and add that I had a kind heart. That sort of downplay all the time. I wonder if it messed me up somehow, even though I have a great career and a great family now. I guess my mom was always worried people would be jealous of me[/quote]
