DD2 developing ahead of DD1 - what to do?????

[NaughtyNigel]

DD1 is 12 DD2 is 10 and although skinnier is nearly as tall as DD1 and is also 'developing' i.e. noticable hairs!!! [eek]. while DD1 is still quite undeveloped all over.
is this going to cause huge ructions? do i take DD2 aside and point it out to her.
DD2 is still quite a young 10 mentally and i don't know how she's going to deal with the whole puberty mess anyway.
I am so not prepared for this next bit. HELP.

come on there has to be omeone this has happened to?

Oh dear!

I wouldn't say anything just yet, to be honest. Is she open? Have you been open - do you feel she will come to you about it?

haven't broached it at all with either one yet. don't know where to start and don't want it tobe an issue at all.

eek........no advice I am afraid, but puberty is no fun at all for sisters (I know, I have 3 DD's of 13, 12 and 9 and the puberty bit is hll right now), and I am so glad that so far they are doing it in the right order developing wise and birth order/age wise!!!

not sure how it will be next year tho, as DD3 is fast catching up with DD2 clothes size wise so I feel she may either catch up or over-take. THEN I'll too have ructions.....

will watch with interest for 'maybe' future tips......
