Does she need a bra

My DD is nearly 10 and measuring a 28a, does she need a bra or will crop tops suffice? She is pretty active and does a lot of dance, she has noticed she has started growing, they aren't sore and she isn't keen on a bra. I dont know what size you 'need' a bra, I rang a local bra shop and they said she did, but I'm not convinced, she is still so young. What size do you go yes you need some proper support?

At her age I would just start with a cropped top/bralet type of thing especially if she isn't keen just yet.

We went for sports bra style, like a crop top but more supportive. If she doesn't want one yet, that's fine too.

My DD is 10. Bought her crop tops which she was initially very excited about & now can't be bothered with them. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Maybe buy a couple of crop tops & leave it to her.

Personally I wouldn't share any details about my child on this thread.

I don't think anyone needs one. And crop top style come in very large sizes these days. Just go with what she is comfortable with.

She needs a bra when she wants one. If she's happy as she is, just let her know you'll take her shopping when she changes her mind.

I would say at an A some support would be best.

Go for a crop top with a bit of support so it doesn’t feel too bra like.

Just get crop tops. They tend to get a bit embarassed getting changed for PE, so that shuld be the right mix of covering up but being more comfy than a bra.

Thanks everyone I think I just needed someone to validate my thoughts. I'll let her choose some crop tops. Thanks
