Mine are 12 and 10.
Both boys.
My 12 year old is a complete emotional nightmare atm.
My 10 year old is chilled out and reasonable.
So far!

my friend has an nearly 9 and a 10 yr old her dd1 is taller and heavier then dd1,dd2 has started to develope breasts.dd1 is very thin and small so she looks like like younger child.its a hard one.
