[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is he skinny? Doesn’t eat too much junk? Back in the day, lots of kids entered puberty in late teens. Everyone is so fat and overfed now, kids enter puberty early. But it’s not “normal”. [/quote] my oldest got her period at 10 and she was (and still is) the skinniest girl in her class. apparently my MIL also got her period at 10, some 60 years ago.[/quote] Same. It's not that the food is causing "early puberty," it's more that our bodies are optimized. It was the poor nutrition and a poor environment that caused late puberty and it wasn't across all cultures. If a girl is living in Victorian England and working in a factory and not getting enough food, sunlight, or rest, puberty is going to be delayed.[/quote] Exactly. DD is growing up eating all non-organic food and, shocker, she is on track to get her period exactly when I did, at 13. It's not what's in our food. It's that we have food.[/quote]
