[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]YEp. That's the age!   not everyone is stinky at once and obviously if your daughter isn't smelly yet you don't have to comply.  There are also many natural alternatives like 'Tom's of Maine' and baby powder for the less stinky.

I have boys and when they get there I'll be sure to comply. I feel for the teachers---that age can be severely stink and bile-inducing...I used to be a camp counselor:).[/quote]

Kids being to collectively stink in third grade.  Its revolting.

In addition to deodorant, children also need a daily bath or shower, perhaps a shampoo, clean clothes, socks, shoes and clean bedsheets.

My DD is just 7 and doesn't have b.o. per say, but she just smells sweaty at the end of the day and must take a shower every night.

I had a mom friend who defied the 5th grade teacher's orders to have her DD use deodorant; this teen is now 14 is has become a social outcast - her b.o. is horrendous and other kids avoid her.  The mom also apparently thinks its fine if her DD takes a shower a few times a week.  Don't be that mom.[/quote]

Wow, you sound so judgmental for someone who supposedly spends so much time around kids.  If it's so revolting, don't go back to the classroom. Really, that girl's teacher "ordered" her to use deodorant, and her mother "defied" her?? I'm wondering who taught the other kids to make that poor girl a social outcast.

Oh, and by the way, it's "per se", not "per say". [/quote]
