Menarche Ceremony
Did you have a menarche (first period) ceremony? What was it like? Who was there? What gifts did you get? If you have a daughter, will you (or did you) give her a menarche ceremony?

I did not have one, but a girl should, something private...

I never had any sort of cermony. My mother never talked to me about periods until my later teens in causal conversation... my mother never talked to me about any personal things like that.

When I have a daughter I will do a little ceremony, nothing big, maybe a girls day out to get our nails done or something, it will be something private between mother and daughter.

I think it is important to recognize that a girl is becoming a woman, it is where girls need to learn how precious their body is and to learn to be a confident woman with self-respect.
