[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So I will be the lone dissent - my daughter started shaving armpits at age 9. I did go through the American Girl doll book and went through the various sections on hygiene. Then I gave her shaving cream and a razor and showed her how to do it. It was simple, painless and a great improvement in her appearance. She didn't ask - bc I didn't think she knew to ask. Every kid is different, and I knew my daughter needed to shave.[/quote] We did basically the same thing and it worked well. My now 14 yr old dd has thanked me for helping her figure things out and not let it get to the point where other kids noticed. DD is a well adjusted confident young woman and has her own style. Have the talk with your dd, give her the tools she needs and then give her space to decide on her own.[/quote]
