[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry OP, I would be scared too. How tall are you/your husband? If you are short/average it’s possible your DD will stop growing sooner than most girls her age. She is 95% at 8 so she is probably as tall as a 10 year old….[/quote]

Also, there is a girl in my DD(10)’s class who already has her period (while my DD has not started puberty yet). This girl is also a full head taller than most girls in her class (including my DD).[/quote]

It’s no longer unusual for 10 year olds to have their periods [/quote]

It’s pretty rare. Again, my DD is 10 and only 1 girl in her grade (about 45 girls) has her period. Others started puberty and clearly show signs, but my DD tells it’s only the one girl that already has her period. I guess girls talk about this stuff…[/quote]

There is NO WAY that your daughter and you know this. Moms needs to stop talking like this, I see these assertions on DCUM al the time with periods and social behaviors and college admissions. You have no idea. It's so so so presumptuous and frankly, makes you look simple to think you know exactly how many girls out of 45 have their periods without realizing that is absurd and is such a private matter associated with shame and it's more likely other girls have their periods and do not talk about it to anyone. Weird. Gross. No. [/quote]
