I started wearing a bra at 8 because, well, I needed a bra at 8. Running around without one was causing some damage to my pectoral muscles.

I dont think theres really a set age on these things, because everyone develops at different rates. i didnt start shaving my legs until I was 15 because there was just no hair on them.

If the hair on her legs is dark and thick then it probably is time to start shaving. Kids can be cruel and hairy-legged girls end up the butt of many jokes.

Yes I have been worried whether she would be teased. I would much rather her start doing these things than feel embarrassed and get teased about it. Cheerleading just started last week and her friend who is 12 is into wearing bra's and such. I think that has alot to do with her. I did end up getting her some of the little girl sports bra's but am not sure about the leg shaving yet. Thanks everyone!!
