Duh!? If she wants to then let her go at it. If you told me to put my stuffed rabbit down I would simply tell you to go straight to hell.
And I'm 43!

Ages 12 and 13 are really the cusp of teenagerhood some kids are still quite immature at this age while others are much more grown up. Id leave the kid alone soon enough it'll be a boy on her arm and youll wish for the days of the monkey.

I think it's wonderful that she carries it. The need to judge someone because she carries a stuffed animal, however, speaks of a less than stable self esteem and should probably be addressed as early as possible before bullying and other behavioral quirks start to emerge.

observing the justifications she makes use of the bottle, it may or won't be suitable. I say this, because of the fact youngsters in modern-day times have been walking around with infant pacifiers of their mouths (that's a "craze" which began out interior the club scene, because of the fact while taking Extacy drugs (and a few different drugs) it motives the consumer to grind their tooth, so the "club toddlers" began to maintain pacifiers of their mouths to dodge the tooth grinding. It quickly grew to grow to be everyday interior the teenage team, even for non-drug purchasers. Now, you will see older toddlers into their youth utilising pacifiers at many everyday hangouts (alongside with skating rinks, golf equipment, etc.). So if she is utilising it as a potential of being interior the "in crowd" then it somewhat is acceptable, because of the fact it somewhat is a "fad", yet while she is utilising a infant bottle while no one else does, then it somewhat is a difficulty. i might motivate the parents to speak to her approximately suited vs. irrelevant, yet until eventually she is being picked on, or teased for it, or notwithstanding if it somewhat is something this is meddling along with her daily existence, then i does no longer possibly do lots approximately it-- however the suited thank you to attend to it, is to first locate out the justifications in the back of it. many situations, older toddlers who've experienced trauma, or intense rigidity/rigidity ranges, revert returned to regressive behaviors (ie. thumb sucking, utilising infant bottles, or perhaps desirous to placed on diapers) as a coping mechanism. So it relies upon on the justifications why the twelve twelve months previous is ingesting out of infant bottles which would be sure notwithstanding if it somewhat is "ok" or no longer. after all, the parents would desire to have a communicate along with her. As for the donning around a crammed monkey-- this is appropriate, as long because it somewhat is no longer interfering interior the twelve twelve months previous's existence (getting teased, etc.).

I carried an american doll with me, it's because I had people around me, but nobody for comfort or help. She needs attention. It's hard, she probably has something to tell you, but can't say it. I was sexually molested was I young 8 to 16. She probably has something to say. Listen, and gain her trust and respect.

Sounds like someone else's child from the way that is stated. If that's the case she doesn't need a monkey, she needs you to leave her alone

Why not? They should stay children as long as they can! It would be more of a problem if she were sexually active, and some girls are at her age!!!

Maybe she just likes having the monkey around. Don't discourage her, she's just having fun.
