Hmmm..tough one.
I think it is okay as long as the bikini isn't too flimsy and revealing. And of course that you are wearing the bikini for what it is intended for...going to the beach or pool and swimming.
As a mother with 2 daughters I think I would still have a hard time letting my teenage daughter wear a bikini as I would be worried that some pervert would be oggling her. But, a pervert could oggle her in a normal bathing suit too.
So, I guess I would say that it would be okay as long as it is a tasteful bikini.
Good luck!

I'm 12 and I wear a bikini! What's the big deal? If you've started puberty and you look older than you are (People have thought I was 15/16 in the past) then you don't want to be seen wandering around in a nasty swimming costume (not that I have anything against them- I wear one every Friday at my swimming club) Also you can get a better tan wearing a bikini which is what they're all about.

It depends. I wear a boyshort bikini that's basically like a training bra and short shorts. But mostly I use it for my backyard pool-when I go out to like the beach or whatever I wear a shirt over it or a normal swimsuit and a pair of shorts.

If they're doing it just because it's a swimsuit and they need one and it was cheap (my reasoning-lol I'm a clearance rack shopper), then it's okay. If they're doing it for attention and to look sexy, then they shouldn't be wearing one. It really depends on the reason for wearing it and the maturity (mentally, not physically lol) of the teenager.

Why not? Normal bikinis are no problem, if you're talking about like thongs or something then gross, no lol. But yeah, in any case bikinis at thirteen are normal.


EDIT:

CC, your friend is an idiot. You cannot get pregnant by simply WEARING a bikini. There are many more things involved in getting pregnant than wearing a bathing suit. By the way, you'd have the same chance of getting pregnant wearing a bikini as you would a one piece. Wow, sorry but gosh that sounded really ridiculous..

13 year olds should be encouraged to be confident with their bodies. Just the fact that you ask the question indicates and attitude in this society that inhibits people and make people feel self concious about their bodies. Im a part time nudist and I see 13 year old girls and boys naked and they are completely comfortable and natural. If a 13 year old girl want to wear a bikini and is comfortable with it, it should be encouraged. The worst thing to me is to see a young girl weariung a bikini and she is constantly ill at ease, tugging at it, trying to cover her breasts or butt.

No they shouldn't be allowed to wear bikinis. There are so many perverts out there and do you want them looking at your 13 year old in a bikini? Just think about it that way. They don't have a body yet what are they trying to show off? And when they do get a body why they stilll trying to show it off?

Yes, I know tons of 13 year old that wear them. Try looking at: Kohls, Target, Delias, Aeropostale, Pac Sun

Yes but as long as they are tasteful. For example a larger child should not wear one or if it has ties on the bottoms or thin ties around the top. These are too easy for perverts to undo and trust me I've seen plenty of boys and a few grown men try this on little girls. Use your discretion.

I'm 13 and I wear a bikini. If you're skinny, it dosn't matter, if you're not, I suggest a one piece.
