I agree that your eleven year old daughter is starting to need a bra.  However, she does not need a padded bra.  Try to remember she is ELEVEN.  She does not need to look older or more sexually mature.  If you disagree with that perhaps you shouldn't be parenting.  

She is a slim girl who is just starting to develop and needs to be guided about learning to like the changes her body is going through.  She does not need something that is going to make the boys stare at her chest and not at her face.  

You also do NOT need to take her to a doctor because she hasn't started her periods yet.  She is ELEVEN.  Stop discussing the fact that she hasn't had her first period yet in front of her, it is unnecessary and she'll get issues.

Oh, and if you want to buy some more bras, I suggest you also get one for your ten year old son, who could double for the Venus of Willendorf.

Yours

Wondering why you are so screwy.
