extract from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menstrual_cycle

The average age of menarche in humans is 12 years, but is normal anywhere between ages 8 and 16. Factors such as heredity, diet and overall health can accelerate or delay menarche

Very true! My DD starts having menses at P5 (Nov) and has not grown any taller (maybe a bit)

Now I wonder…is it nature or nurture that they are so big and tall?

Hi parents,


Where do you or your teenage children (12 & above) usually shop for clothes? Most shopping centres are full of clothes for ladies but very few have clothes suitable for youths. If you are aware of any place with a wide selection of clothes for this age group, kindly share. Thanks.

Hi westmom, Tri-mum & sleepy. Thanks for the response.


My kids are fussy and worst of all, not interested in clothes. It’s difficult to get them to go shopping with me. When they were younger, I used to decide/buy their clothes for them. In the last 1 year, I ended up having a lot of white elephants in their wardrobe. :x I have one more week to shop. Will check out Zara.

I say, put them up for sale and see if any takers here. I am sure you arent the only one with white elephants.
