Should I let my daughter go?

Question

I just go a letter from school today about a girls class. It would be about girly things. It said on the letter that the health teacher would supervise it. It also said on the letter that it would talk about person hygiene and bodily chagnes for girls. I did talk about periods and stuff. But should I let her go?

Answer 1

I agree if you think that she is old enough to be mature about it then let her go. Get the correct information not what jr.high girls say... I know its hard but she has to grow up and she needs to know what is going on with her body!

Answer 2

yea, you should let her go so when she gets her period she will know what to do.And then they might tell about s*x.

Answer 3

since she's 12 i think it's a great idea for her learn about changes she's gonna go through!

Answer 4

Definetely, I took my sister to one when i was 15 and she was 10.  I had already started and i still learned things.  My sister walked out with tons of questions so go with her or be prepared to take her out to lunch after and talk with her too!

Answer 5

COME ON MOM ARE YOU JOKING yes let her go, this is crucial to her knowledge about safe s*x personal hygiene *periods and what not* you cant keep kids in the dark they will find out in all the wrong places knowledge is power let her learn how to prepare for situations later in life.

Answer 6

It depends upon whether your daughter is interested, some girls aren't interested in "girly" things (whatever the heck that means) Yes she should go as long as they are discussing body changes...but at 12 it's kind of late, since...I would have thought they did that at 9 or 10, at least they did when my oldest was in school.  Maybe it's the area.  If what they are going to talk about is really "girly" things I wouldn't make her go if she wasn't interested.  I know my middle child woud  throw up if someone made her be a girl...LOL

Answer 7

of course she needs to know all of this stuff and she might get answers for what she might not want to ask about

Answer 8

I agree with you decision. My daughter was in an all-girls class last year, and it really helped her. She found it easier to relate to the other girls, and they realized they all had the same problems. Good job mommy :)

Answer 9

its s*x ed yes send her

Answer 10

Sure! It would be great for her to hear these things from someone other than mom. This way the "ewwwww" factor isn't so bad. *haha* You can never have too much information about s*x and the changes that young women go through during puberty!

Answer 11

I think that you should let her go so that she can hear what other girls her age are talking about and this will help her feel comfortable about discussing her concerns that she may have.

Answer 12

Yes, It is going to happen to her. You are being outrageous if you don't let her go

Answer 13

I say let her go and also keep trying to teach her everything you can and get the father involved too. The more you stick it to her, the more thought she is going to put into the subject. THIS INCLUDES s*x. The more you talk about and the more open and truthful you are, the more likely she is to do it back.

Answer 14

It depends on your daughter's age. If she is older than nine, then you should probably let her go. If she is eight or under, then I think she is too young to hear about that stuff.

Answer 15

I would probably let my daughter go. Just to be safe though I think I'd speak to the person in charge ahead of time to get more details on what will be taught. I know I'd want to be sure that they were saying anything that went completely against my beliefs.

I can remember going to one of these myself. Although it was embarrassing like someone else said it was nowhere near as embarrassing as hearing it from GASP, my Mom.
