[quote=Anonymous]Would you feel the same way about a boy who didn’t want to talk about puberty? Expect him to “acknowledge” it and discuss it? Probably not! We have as a society pretty fraught attitudes towards female sexuality and this impacts how girls feel about puberty. She probably feels like she’s being put under a weird microscope. It’s her body and she doesn’t need to talk to you about it or think about it at all. She does need to maintain hygeine and learn about birth control etc (hopefully that’s been a discussion prior to puberty.) As for the bras, just leave a variety for her. At her age I totally refused bras and didn’t wear one regularly until I discovered super comfortable bralettes in bright fun colors that were not girly and did not look like bras. [/quote]
