My little baby is growing up???

Question

i remember my 3rd grader 2 years ago, with long hair, circle shaped glasses, pink dresses, and baby doll bangs.

now, i see my soon to be 5th grader with short, spunky hair, swifty side bangs, contacts, skinny jeans, and graphic tees.

what's going on??? how could this happen? what can i do to stop this? I'm afraid it will get worse!!!

Answer 1

im 16. a junior in high school. my moms still treating my like im 2:  "gotta go potty?" and just a bunch of other embarrassing stuff. just let her grow up. but if you dont like the way she dresses/hair, dont buy the clothes for her/pay for the hair. shes too young for a job...she'll be forced to do as you wish.

its what happens mommy. we all grow up eventually.

Go to a therapist.

Answer 8

Lay off the Miracle Grow!!  Lol , awww, she is growing up !

Answer 9

You really are clueless

Answer 10

don't buy her clothes like that until she's 13, that's a simple soultion.  buy her regular jeans and the graphic tees, you should buy a nice shirt instead.

but you should know she would be growing up, it's a part of life, how do you think your parents felt when you were doing the same thing?

Answer 11

She's getting older.  Your daughter is just becoming more mature and finding what style she's into.  She's going through a personality change, just like almost every girl her age.  You can't stop it because it's her life, her choicer, her hormones and her growth.  It may get worse, or she may end up a preppy girly girl.  At that age many girls go through phases, so you should just go along with what she's doing.  As long as her grades are up and she's focusing on school, there should be no problem.  She is making a statement about herself and what she likes.  Your daughter needs her freedom and wants to be independent...  You should have known this was going to happen when you got pregnant and found out it was going to be a girl.  She's becoming a teenager, and you can't stop that!!

Answer 12

um you should have known this was going to happen when you gave birth.

Answer 13

it IS going to get worse and there is nothing you can do about it..sorry..

Answer 14

its the new in, you really cant stop it,

but it seriously is more like 12-19 yr olds that dress and look liek taht, not 10 yr olds...

it probably will get worse, because of all the trends now days, but  eyeliner is the next stop so hold on to that while you can

Answer 15

nothing you can do to stop it. just be happy that shes wearing skinny jeans and graphic tees instead of mini skirts and a belly shirts.

Answer 16

i hated 5th grade

Answer 17

Let her be ya everybody has to grow up you know....It sucks having to have a mother to tell you what you can and cant wear...as long as shes not dressing S****y then you shouldn't worry.....trust me i know....im 13 and my mom still treats me like im 5...like careful crossing the street, tie your shoes and all kinds of other stuff....good luck
