    Waiting on my 12-yo to experience menarche. Gods. Mom sent her with pads the last two summers, nada.

    Not looking forward to the talks we’ll have, but at least her mom and I are on the same page, educated her. LOL, she’s dying to start, excited.

    Yeah hon, it’s a life changer, but not so great.

      our goddaughter is also 12. same sitch. i am a little worried for her mother because if this is pre-puberty she is in for one hell of a ride. goddaughter’s already as mood-swingy as I ever was (and I was the drama Queen Bitch (working on it) of the performing arts department of the high school and all three major colleges I attended, and I didn’t even do the performing arts program of two of those colleges I just had that much drama), and we only expect that to intensify.

      Does anyone know of any hotels with padded walls and ceilings we could check into for a couple days and just, scream? those sound really quiet and peaceful.
