[quote=Anonymous]The Care and Keeping of You book is excellent - great recommendation by that other PP. I have a 12 year old and this book has been such a great conversation starter. Also, maybe one tactic to discuss how to be hygienic with her products is to buy her a fresh box of pads, pull one out, open it and very matter of factly show her how to remove a dirty one, wrap it in the new wrapper and toss it in the trash. When my DD came home from school after the family life chapter (or whatever they call it), she had a little 'goodie' bag of feminine hygiene products. I showed her how to put the pad in the underwear, how to remove and how to dispose of it. I also showed her how to work a tampon and applicator (not really putting it in but pushing on the applicator to see how it worked, etc). [/quote]
