[quote=Anonymous]Intervene. I’m so glad my mom did for me well before it became an issue. I was young for grade and also hit puberty late, but she made sure when I was going into 5th grade that I was wearing deodorant and a (training) bra, and that I was shaving legs and using acne products going into 6th grade. As such, I was never the smelly kid, never had nipples showing through my shirt, never had hugely hairy legs, had decent enough skin although standards were lower back then and fewer kids went to a dermatologist for acne. I never would have noticed on my own at that age. She didn’t portray it in a “shaming” way, just as a matter of fact and what you do when you’re going through puberty. [/quote]
