Elizabeth’s embarrassing period experience
Hello, I am a gigantic fan and I love the Alice Books and although I was sad it ended I’m so glad it ended with a happily ever after especially Alice marrying Patrick, She and Pamela and Elizabeth being friends for all those years, her becoming a counselor and helping kids through the same things she faced and writing a book series of her own life! It was all wonderful! I remember when Alice and Pamela taught Elizabeth how to use a Tampon when she was bleeding when she got out of the pool and I remember how embarrassed she was, was that something that happened to you? or was it something that happened to one of your friends or family?
It was worse than that. We were horsing around in a public pool and a girlfriend and I were each riding around on a boy’s shoulder, trying to push the other girl off into the water. Once we did, we climbed back on again, and the boys were laughing a lot. My girlfriend whispered to me that we should go inside to the shower room, and told me that a very private part of my body was peeking out of the very narrow portion of the bathing suit between my legs. I forced myself to fix it up and go right back in the pool and we found other things to do. But it’s still embarrassing to think about it.
