Being A Girl

I'm 10 years old and I will be in the 5th grade. I'm finding out that becoming a teen is not that easy. This bra thing is driving me crazy and my acne is crazy! This is not fun. Being a teen is just too much. I just want to know if any other 10 year old girls feel the same way about becoming a teen?

  1. I'm not ten now, but when I was ten, I remember being really embarrassed about the changes in my body. But there is nothing to be embarrassed or uncomfortable about because everyone goes through the same bodily changes. You are just starting to see changes in your hormone levels (causes acne) and the bra thing is not too bad once you stop wearing training bras and get into a regular size. Remember to talk openly with your mom because she is the best resource and went through everything you will go through. She can get you the things you need. You can talk to me too of course. You have a lot of growing miss pre-teen. If you have any questions ask your mom and your older cousins they can help you. Acne- wash your face often and don't put your hands on your face because you are putting bacteria onto your face. the acne is more prominent now because the changes in your hormone levels and more oils are produced in your skin. So wash your face often and get a non-oily moisturizer to restore the balance to your skin. You are a beautiful you lady. This blog is a great creative outlet. Very inspirational! I hope you get feedback from other girls. Good Luck with your blog! Take Care See you soon! Love you!

    Think of the acne this way - it's the "little girl" being pushed out to make room the the beautiful new, young lady that's about to take her place. Your Mom will become your best of the best friends during this time, because she can understand better than anyone how you feel right now. Just know that you can go and talk to her about anything, and when you do, you'll probably get some extra hugs and kisses from her to make you feel a whole lot better about yourself. You'll see.
