‘What do you say when your 9-year-old daughter says she doesn’t want to have a period?’
This is such a good question -
and not just for parents of 9-year-olds who are thinking about periods,
but for all of us.
Cos this question is really about connection.
This week on Sitting in a Car, I remember when I got my first period.
Because my family didn’t talk about periods, I decided I wanted to keep my period a secret.
(You can hear how that worked out here.)
This episode is a gentle reminder about this past question on Sitting in a Car and how my answer can support even more connection between you and your growing kid. Because sometimes it’s helpful to be reminded of the things you wanted to talk about in your family but you’ve forgotten about in the swirl of family life x
