My daughter, is 11 and 1/2 and is also quite beautiful with a great shape. She has no body fat and is wearing a 34 B bra. I worry that she will fall victim to some creep because these girls are the ultimate victims because they are so innocent.

Re: Re: ages of your daughters

Jan turned 15 on May Day. Her older (normal? LOL)

sister is 16 1/2, which is a great help to

Jan socially, since Vicky is one of those kids who is

not necessarily in the "popular crowd" but is

well-liked by a lot of people. Jan, like most kids

with autism, is attractive. She has shoulder-length

blown hair, gray eyes, is 5'5" and has a nice figure.

I know what you mean -- I have seen guys eyeing her,

too.

Jan turned 15 on May Day. Her older (normal? LOL)

sister is 16 1/2, which is a great help to

Jan socially, since Vicky is one of those kids who is

not necessarily in the " popular crowd " but is

well-liked by a lot of people. Jan, like most kids

with autism, is attractive. She has shoulder-length

blown hair, gray eyes, is 5'5 " and has a nice figure.

I know what you mean -- I have seen guys eyeing her,

too.

All of our daughters are pretty but they all look

different and none of them look like each other or

like my husband or me. They are quite the heriditary

mix. But one thing that we have to be thankful for --

rightly or wrongly -- being attractive opens a lot of

doors for these kids that might otherwise be closed to

them.

My daughter will be 18 years old the first part of

this coming January. It can be a very startling

experience when you realize puberty is upon you, but I

can say that I have survived it so far. She reached

puberty at age 9 and caught me (and her poor

father)completely unawares at the time, but I did wing

it pretty darn good!

Best regards,

Diane of Kansas

Oh, I know. Jan wears a 36C and these current skimpy

teen tops just emphasize her bust so we try to find

something more modest. She was an early developer too

and it really embarrassed her at first but, as with

periods, she has adjusted. Yes, I suppose we all

worry about our daughters falling victim to some

creep.

That is interesting about Juniper saying that she was

a princess. Jan has always identified with Disney

princesses and had a very good self image. When she

was younger one of the kids in her class even asked me

if we lived in a castle because Jan had gone to school

and told them that she was a princess. And so they

are -- our little princesses, no matter how old they

get! (I also have two older daughters who are 30 and

26.

My daughter, is 11 and 1/2 and is also quite beautiful with a great shape. She has no body fat and is wearing a 34 B bra. I worry that she will fall victim to some creep because these girls are the ultimate victims because they are so innocent.

Re: Re: ages of your daughters

Jan turned 15 on May Day. Her older (normal? LOL)

sister is 16 1/2, which is a great help to

Jan socially, since Vicky is one of those kids who is

not necessarily in the "popular crowd" but is

well-liked by a lot of people. Jan, like most kids

with autism, is attractive. She has shoulder-length

blown hair, gray eyes, is 5'5" and has a nice figure.

I know what you mean -- I have seen guys eyeing her,

too.

- My daughter is 6 - will be 7 in February... I don't even want to think about 12!! She is tall and thin, and of course, like all of our children, simply beautiful.
