My girl wore a 32c cup at 14 and wasn’t finished growing! She hated it and hated the attention as well, but never in a million years would I have said “sure honey, let’s get you a double mastectomy.”

Yeah she really had a time of it, especially with her brothers’ friends. Got to the point we had to stop sleepovers for the boys for a while but all survived.

Best of all, she experienced the singular joy of nursing her babies. Had she been denied that by virtue of her parents capitulating to her adolescent self she’s have had good cause to hate us.
