Me please - DD is 12 (but only just she is nearly 13)

katy-do complete the form (link above). Thanks

Just worked it out

In my defence I wasn't well yesterday

no worries!

So you're not looking for people to actually test the bras? - just answer questions, is that right?

Done [hgrin]

Done

foofi, correct, it is just a discussion in a private area of MN....an idea for the future though...would you/your DD do that if it came up?

Have added my name.

I used to be a Textile Product Technologist at a competitor of theirs - d'you reckon that rules me out!

DONE [SMILE]

adding now.

I haven't got the right aged children but my friend and I were a bit horrified at the padded bras for that age group we saw in Tesco the other week. Can this comment be passed on please!

dd is 9 this academic year...can i do it? we have already had many arguments discussions about appropriate undies for appropriate ages

mayor - if you are interested please add your details.

have done, thank you :)

Guess I can't join as DD 13 is on her 2nd bra . Have to say 'tho that lightly padded bras are the in thing. However I have a bugbear against those with wires as they shouldn't be allowed till about 15!!!

Hello to everyone who's already taken part - THANKYOU!!!!
If you do have a daughter who is not 9, but is ready for her first bra please feel free to take part or just leave a message here and we'll make sure its listened to and included.
That applies to everyone!

Thankyou!

Done.

WhatagradeA - I have not seen the tesco bras so can not comment, but I would say that at 11 padding is more important that support to my daughter. During the development process growth is often uneven and nipples can protrude in a mortifying way. I hate sexualised underwear for young girls but plain padding for discretion I can understand.

my dd wouldnt wear a padded bra as she wants her boobs hidden not accentuated!

'Padded' can mean two different things, I think that's one of the major problems.

Are these bras 'padded' to make boobs look bigger, or 'padded' as in made of thicker material so there is no nipple-showage?

It is nipple coverage that is important to dd. Even the thicker crop tops do not seem to offer the modesty element important to dd.

Hi, i have a daughter who is 11. we would like to take part please :-D

DOH !!! just found link... have filled out form
