[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got my period at 10.5, and I'm 45 now.  I was wearing Carter's underwear the day I got it, and I screamed like a wild person, yelling for my mom to come upstairs.

I did some really gross things like putting pads not in the trashcan when I was babysitting.

Help her.  Talk about shaming a kid who doesn't know what is happening or how to handle!  I remember crying one morning b/c my friends were going to the pool and I had my period.  I wanted to wear a bad in my bathing suit.  I know we discussed tampons, but it was a while before I used them.  These are not those fun childhood memories I like to think about.  And my mom was supportive and helpful.  But when you're that young, at least when I was going through it, I was mortified and did not discuss with my friends.

And who the heck cares if she is an outlier?  She has her period.  [b]What does being right or wrong on the statistics have to do with the question?[/b][/quote]

I think people are just being very sympathetic to a 10 year old having to deal with a period. 
10 year olds are still very young kids. [/quote]
