And one wonders what they will tell the girls who get their periods? HARD for adolescents to tell when it will come at that age!

I can think of fewer things more mortifying than having an "accident" and not being able to handle it discretly at that age!

Ah, I was never an adolescent girl but I'm pretty sure they only occur once a month give or take.
Though, I had a friend who had an "accident", I loaned her my coat to wrap around. Dumbest thing I ever did until many years later when I had a driver's license!
