they grow up too fast, I agree but you can't stop that so what you really want is to stay connected with her through the changes. Make sure you meet her friends and their parents and you're all on the same page about what's appropriate for her age but without embarassing her (tough line to balance) More than anything though let her know she's loved and talk WITH her not to her. Develop trust now before the really challenging teen years are upon you. Maybe do a once a month parent/daughter date night. If you're the dad, then on those date night teach her how a woman should be treated with respect so that she knows how men should treat her when she gets older. If you're the mom then on those dates make sure to listen to her and let her determine the conversation somewhat. These monthly 'dates' will be fun time where she has your attention and she will some to trust and cherish your time together. Make sure she has good self esteem and respects herself and trust her to make the right decisions or at least learn from her mistakes.

Well, im 11 lol so i would just like to point out that some parents just need to relize that their children are growing up and matureing. I know that if you keep telling them to stay younger that will make them want to grow up even more, They are becomming more mature but just dont let them start dressing like teenagers or acting like one. Let them Be mature just not too mature...Anyways
Goodluck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You really can't, but it is your job to show her the right way to grow as an individual.
Good luck, you'll need it!!
