How Can Mums support Girls Through Puberty?

Puberty can be a challenging time for young girls. The physical and emotional changes can be overwhelming, and many girls may feel confused, embarrassed, or even scared. As a mum, you have an important role to play in supporting your daughter through this transition.


Here are some tips on how you can help:


  1. Start the conversation early

It's never too early to start talking about puberty. Even if your daughter is still young, you can begin the conversation by explaining what puberty is and what changes she can expect in the coming years. This will help her feel more prepared and less anxious when the changes do start to happen.


  1. Be open and honest

When discussing puberty with your daughter, it's important to be open and honest. Don't sugarcoat the experience or shy away from talking about difficult topics. Your daughter needs to feel like she can come to you with any questions or concerns she may have.


  1. Provide accurate information

Make sure you have accurate information about puberty and the changes your daughter will be going through. You can find information online, in books, or from your doctor. It's important to provide your daughter with the facts, so she knows what to expect and can feel more in control of her body.


  1. Encourage healthy habits

During puberty, it's important for girls to establish healthy habits that will benefit them throughout their lives. Encourage your daughter to eat a healthy diet, exercise regularly, get enough sleep, and practice good hygiene.


  1. Be supportive

Puberty can be a challenging time, and your daughter may experience a range of emotions. It's important to be supportive and understanding. Listen to her concerns, validate her feelings, and offer reassurance. Let her know that it's normal to feel the way she does and that you are there for her.


  1. Celebrate milestones

As your daughter goes through puberty, there will be milestones to celebrate. From getting her first period to buying her first bra, these moments can be significant for your daughter. Make sure to celebrate these milestones and let your daughter know how proud you are of her.


  1. Seek professional help if needed

If your daughter is struggling with puberty or experiencing significant emotional or physical changes, it may be helpful to seek professional help. Talk to your doctor or a mental health professional to get the support your daughter needs.


To sum up, it is crucial for mothers to support their daughters during puberty. This can be achieved by initiating the conversation early, maintaining openness and honesty, providing factual information, promoting healthy habits, showing support and understanding, commemorating milestones, and seeking professional assistance when necessary, you can help your daughter navigate this challenging time with confidence and grace.
