The proper use of flattery

Robyn came in from a meeting last night.

Rod (who hadn't seen her all day and really knows how to score points):  Wow!  Look at you.  You look great!  You aren't supposed to look like that unless I'm with you.  No one would believe that you are the mother of 5 children.  You look so young.

Nate (not old enough to understand the necessity of and rewards for such flattery is a little confused):  Does having children affect a woman's beauty?
