[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Frankly, I would feel violated if a mother (or mother figure) even asked me if I wanted them in the room!

She's having sex, OP. I think she can handle a speculum. [/quote]

Maybe you're not as close with your mother as my daughter is with me. I've worked really hard to cultivate a relationship with her where she could view me as a part of her support system. [/quote]

Actually, I am incredibly close with my mother. But I am also very private about my body, and once I was comfortable enough to have sex I was comfortable enough to visit a gynecologist alone (partly because my mother helped me take mature steps one at a time). I just fail to see why a sexual, young adult (almost) WOMAN would be so broken up about an annual exam that she'd need company. I think that is unusual. [/quote]

NP here. You fail to see why because that's not how YOU felt about it. Some of us felt differently. I did, and was grateful for the support. OP, I think giving her the option, being prepared for whatever she wishes, is the perfect way to go. Sounds like you are a very considerate mom/stepmom![/quote]
