DD is 9 years old (10 in June this year) she has been asking for deoderant for a while after she got a freebie one when she completed the Race for Life last year.
I have been holding out because I really didn't think that girls started to 'smell' until they reached puberty (or even the start of) which DD doesn't appear to have any vestige of signs of this.
Today she said she smells after she's been doing PE/games and speaking to DH he says he's noticed as well (why on earth he didn't say anything to me I don't know!).
Is this something that happens earlier than puberty? I really have no idea!
Thanks
