Moms with teen girls...did I overstep (bra question)
Okay so I am a bit nervous. On sunday there was a young youth (grade 9 i think) and she was having bra problems so I went with her into the church's bathroom so she could explain it to me...it is not fitting properlly. I told her to walk into a local store that mesures and to get her to tell them that she has never been mesured before.
She says "Mom says I am an A or B cup"..well I am a C or a D and she is about my size or bigger. So i blurted out "I dont think you are I would suggest getting mesured" Well I am going to see them tonight...did I over step??
Sorry for any mistakes this cold is affecting my vision watery eyes cant see much!
I'm in favor of information and a good fit. IMO, you didn't over step but people are crazy sensitive about things these days, so who knows what they will think.
I don't believe you did. When my dgd came to visit, a few months after starting to wear an A, I realized she needed to be fitted. She needed a D! I was afraid my dil would be upset. The only thing she was upset about was that she hadn't realized that she had changed so much.
I wouldn't think that you did. I'd rather have comfort and clearly she wasn't comfy.
i don't think you did...you were just giving your opinion
Whether you overstepped her mother's boundries, only her mother could answer. If I were the girl, I wouldn't mind (wouldn't think you had overstepped); I would see it as a "second" opinion. If I were the mother, it wouldn't bother me, but I would probably ask you to talk to me instead of my daughter or to her in my presence as that's a kind of private thing.
Proper bra fit is very important. :-)
Thanks everyone! Well see her soon...Feel bad for her hope she got fitted...I know when I went I was wearing a B cup turned out I was a C maybe even D (depending on the bra )
I wouldn't have had an issue with the discussion, but I would take BIG issue with the fact that you went into a restroom with my teenage daughter to discuss breasts. That could have been done outside, within view of others, while still out of earshot.
