We've already talked briefly about the difference in boy/girl bodies. Mainly what changes to expect in her own body. I was an early bloomer and don't want a period to catch her by surprise - it can be pretty scary.

We've agreed that if ever her friends (or anyone) talk about "the facts" she'll tell me right away and we'll look up the real facts (because they're sure to be wrong) together. I've also told her that she's not to discuss it with other kids, if asked she's to tell them they should ask their own parents or teachers. I don't want a "why is your daughter telling my daughter" phone call.
