It earns fragile and fleeting things
Tell her that anything she gets by dressing provocatively or flirting with men—if she gets elected school president, if she becomes “popular”, and when she’s older if she gets a job out of flirting—is fragile and fleeting.

The only way to earn something that’s truly hers is through her intelligence and kindness. Nobody can take those things away from her.
