Advice: The big "talk"
| Sun, 02-18-2007 - 7:28am |
Okay, I need advice on when people started or will start to have the big "talk" with their kids.
My oldest is going to be 9 next week. I have some friends telling me they already had this talk with their children at this age. She just seems so young to me. She still plays house, school and dolls with her little sister. IMO, telling her about sex is going to take some innocence away from her. But, am I sheltering her too much?
She knows about periods and body hair development. She already has little breats "bumps" (as she likes to call "em).
Agghhh..I really thought I had until she was 12 to have this talk like my mother did.
What is everyone's opinion?

My dh does give a hoot about his appearance. He stays fit, washes his face, shaves it, conditions it, takes good care of his teeth, makes sure his lips aren't chapped. He looks great. If I do all those things, I look okay, too. Some of us think wearing makeup every day amounts to an unhealthy obsession.

Why is it unhealthy for a grown woman?
