This is so random and not a question but I used to come on here when I was like 12/13 in lockdown! And now Im 16 almost 17, sitting a level mocks in a few weeks! I randomly thought of this website and thought Id come on and see how you are. It genuinely makes me feel old remember lockdown 4 years ago! I remember reading some of the posts from older girls and thinking wow I wonder what Ill be like when Im that age and this is just a bit of a full circle moment haha. Anyway hope youre doing well xx

OAU822- I saw this question and have some advice for then person who asked the question , can you please post it for me. I just wanted to say that often boys leave girls that they like on delievered for a while up to a few days even. They think if they reply too quickly they look overly eager. I agree leaving it a few days can look silly but I wouldnt think too much of it and take it as a compliment that he wants to look calm and composed around you because he likes you. Thanks x

My maths teacher always tells me off for no reason, telling me I give him attitude even though I dont say anything.

Show Answer

Hi, sometimes you don't have to say a single word to show attitude. Why not ask your Maths teacher if you can have a chat after class to discuss any issues and work out how things can be better between you both. When you do chat, try not to be defensive or place blame, be open and honest and let him know you just want to see what the problem is, so you can move on.

When youre waiting for your period should you put a pad so ot doesnt leak or just wait? Thxxx

Show Answer

Hi, it's a good idea to use a liner if you think your period may be with you soon, or if you want to capture discharge and feel fresh every day. A liner will keep your underwear protected from any period leaks until you can pop to the toilet and switch up to a pad. Check out our teens range of liners, ideal for smaller bodies.

Hi, I had my period a few weeks ago and it was due today but it didnt come so how will I be abel to know when its here?

Show Answer

Hi, the thing with first periods and indeed for the first few years, is that they can be erratic with either long or short gaps in between, sometimes several months can pass between each one. So don't worry this is quite normal and instead keep some pads or liners with you when out and about, so no matter when your period arrives you are prepared.

Random but if a toddler is about to do something dangerous is it okay to tap them on the bottom or hand? May be too personal but did you use it on your children?

Show Answer

It would be much better to distract them so they stop what they are doing and move over to where you have something else to show them.

People at school keep asking me if it is true if I have nits and I feel really upset that people obviously think I do and I am starting to worry if I do and I don't know whether I ask my mum to check

Show Answer

Hi, why do you think people are asking you this question? Have you been itching this area more frequently?  Have a chat to a good friend in school and ask why this rumour is going round, and then come back to me and we can chat further.
