After school the other day, my 11 year old daughter and I immediately went to a local YMCA to swim. As we changed into our swimsuits I noticed she was not wearing underwear. I was alarmed by this and asked her why. She said that she was just in a big rush in the morning, very tired, and just forgot to put them on. I accepted her answer and told her that she needs to wear underwear when out in public, but I am concerned that these troubled celebrity girls (Lindsay Lohan, Brittney Spears, and Paris Hilton) are somehow making it "cool" to just flash your private parts around. It is a big fear that this somehow is "trendy" and I don't want to even imagine that this is happening on the schoolbus or elsewear. When young girls are making themselves look prepubescent "down there" as a fashion, it is just concerning that girls may also think showing their vaginas is a way to "be cool" and get attention. Please tell me this is not going on.

well do what my mom did to me and my brother. and neither of us would ever dream of not wearing underwear. before she leaves for school check her for underwear, if shes bare make her go back and put them on. she needs to wear them . girls have lots of discharge and she will soon have a period and need to wear a pad

It may be a comfort thing for your daughter. I have always been on the larger side, though not extremely obese. The way alot of underwear is cut was uncomfortable for me when I was younger, so instead of mentioning it to my mom, I often went totally without. I kept this up from about age 11 until I was 20 (I'm now 23.) When I was 20, I started discovering different cuts and fit that was comfortable for me and began wearing those.

So when your shopping the next time, you may want to somehow sneak in a question if she likes her current underwear style or wants to try something new. If she gets something she feels good in, she'll wear it.

a lot of people are saying to check her. check her for what? if she is smart she will wear under wear, then take them off once she gets to school. Do an element of surprise day at school. drop in on her. tell her to go to the bathroom with you. A good day to do it would be on spirit day, sports day, any type of day when the school has a big get together in the auditorium, the gym, outside, etc... if you bust her then give her examples of people that did something stupid when they were young and paid for it later... antonella from american idol, etc. give your opionion then ask for her opionion about it. Ask her how she would feel if something followed her for life when she did it at a young age?
a lot of these girls have sleepovers and take pictures of their vaginas and breast and send it to a friend who ends up sending it to other friends and before you know it, the picture is all over school and your daughter has earned the title of u know what. Ask her how she would feel if this happened to her.(this happened to some girls in my town. the principal got a hold of the pictures, big police investigation, embarrasing for parents and girls that posed nude. it was on alot of radio stations, newpapers, etc..... give your daughter that scenario also.
good luck in this crazeee world

unfortunately teens get ingluenced by it and it becomes a trend, talk to her about it and how privates are supossed to stay that way. I'm sure she's not flashing her privates but make her put underwear on.

If it's true that she's fallowing this new trend just tell that it is wrong, disrespectful to herself and show her other celebrities as an example like Amanda Bynes, Tyra Banks, Hilary Duff etc.

Your question is nonsense and I believe you asked this under another name before.

It might be....check her every day and tell her that it is not what "real" girls do....that people will talk about her.

Tell the child that not wearing underwear to school is NOT ALLOWED and that next time you will spank her on her now already bare butt. She will get a nasty reputation that will hurt her in high school.
