cdrumm4448 Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 My almost-9-year-old ds has been telling me the last few weeks that his armpits are stinky. I kind of brushed him off because I thought he was too young for that. Well, he said it again as we were reviewing math today, so I grabbed an arm to see for myself. I'm a little sorry I did, because he's right. So, we are off tomorrow to buy him some deodorant. I am wondering if there is a book appropriate for his age regarding other changes that are coming, one that doesn't give the whole story away, YKWIM? Thanks. (Honestly, I am a little freaked out by this. But, he has always had clammy, sticky, sweaty feet that were stinky, since he was a baby. In my mind I'm equating the pits to his feet. At least I'm trying to.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in VA Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 The Care and Keeping of You is a great girl book--I wonder if there's something like it for boys? It tells the whole period story and other growing up things, but doesn't give away how babies are made, iykwim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
