A down-to-earth guide to everything you really want to know about periods, skin care, relationships, exams, and much, much more! From menstruation to masturbation, losing your virginity, experimenting with drugs and alcohol, exercise, and good skin care, Dr Stoppard addresses all the new experiences that come into a girl's life when she moves into her teen years. In plain language and even-handed advice, Dr Stoppard provides girls with all the information they need to make informed decisions about their life. "I have no simple answer as to when you're old enough to have sex. No one can tell you this. The answer is, when you're able to cope with sexual relationships - and this varies." She encourages girls to talk to their parents or older sibling about these sensitive issues, even when it seems impossible. The book also provides a list of useful addresses for further support.
