[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My wife passed away from cancer a few years ago and its just been me and my daughter. I've been managing pretty well but my girl had her 12th birthday and I have realized things are about to change. She asked me over dinner if we can get her a new bra. To me that has meant a sports bra for athletics when we play sports together. My girl says she wants a pretty one like her friends. I am way too uncomfortable taking her shopping. I also don't want to take anything away from her feeling grown IP or special. With this I also know that periods, boys, puberty are coming. And I feel very unprepared. I have read every book out there. Still in the moment doesn't help. We don't have any close female relatives I could ask.

Honestly I am also a little upset about possibly losing my girl. What if she doesn't want to play sports with me or read the paper anymore. WhT if we grow a part because things change.

Any help greatly appreciated[/quote]

You will always have your daughter - she will ALWAYS want to play sports with you and read the paper.  I promise.

I agree with those that say she asked YOU.  Make an appointment at Nordstrom - tell them what your situation is, and say that you want to purchase "X" number of bras for your 12 year old daughter.  Let her get fitted while you sit outside and read magazines.[/quote]
