How to Talk to Your Daughter about Puberty - All Pro Dad

Puberty in girls can be an incredibly confusing time. Having conversations is important. Here's how to talk to your daughter about puberty.
When I was around 7 years old, my sister had a pet mouse (a female to be specific). At some point, the mouse started hemorrhaging. Thinking that the mouse was hurt, I ran to my parents to see if we could take the mouse to a doctor. That's when my dad explained to me that the mouse was female and just having something called a period. He explained that it was something female bodies do. In his words, Just like your mom and sisters. Unfortunately, the hemorrhaging that this mouse was experiencing had nothing to do with a monthly cycle. It died several days later and the words just like your mom and sisters rang in my ears. Needless to say, I started to sob believing that every female in my family would perish in the next couple of days. After some explaining, I eventually calmed down.
