Why can't some parents let their tenn daughter shave their legs?

Well I think some parents should let their teen have some freedom of choices to make instead of always making the decisions for them. I think it is unfair to wait to get out of their house inorder to shavemy legs. Is that bad?

Answer #4

well, I am 14. I started shaving my legs when I was like10 or 11. maybe sooner, I don’t know. but at first when I was like 10 I asked my mom, and she wouldnt let me for the longest time, she was afraid I would cut my legs.lol eventually I told her I shaved my legs behind her back and she said thats okay, she understood. now if your parents arnt letting you shave your legs and your a teen. tell them you want to. or just do it. thats how I started to shave my legs when I was 10 and how all my friends did it. if your a teen I believe you should at least be able to shave your legs!!! so, I am with you there!! Hope my advice helps you!!! from advice girlyy!!! beth(:

Answer #5

some parents are probably worried that their daughter may accidentally cut herself. The daughter should be able to prove that she’s cautious enough to do it

Answer #6

they dont want guys looking at your nice smooth legs your body your choice

Answer #7

yes I think its mean. I started shaving my legs when I was 13, and all the girls at school had started when they were 11, 12. I was always made fun of because of that, and it alienated me, being the only girl like that. it wasnt my mums fault though- shes a single mum and honestly had no idea what to do with me as im the oldest. but I think it is mean when parents do it on purpose. I can see where they are coming from … (don’t want their little girl growing up so fast blah blah) but when all the other girls are shaving their legs, I think its mean not to let their daughter.

obviously if everyone was taking drugs or something, then they still have a right to say no, but shaving legs? what is the big deal!

Answer #8

Shaving not really bad, But if perents let kids do whatever they want imagine this world. So yes some choices can be giving but sometimes, I know, we think we know everything and we really don’t.
