My eldest is nearly 13. So I can also see this approaching like a freight train, maybe not fast but it’s not stopping either.
Thankfully her mum is sensible and dealing with these matters sensitively, and the daughters sensible anyway. Because I am not in the least bit scary.
Fortunately though – one of her uncles is ex-military and security, and the other is a prison officer trained in hostage and anti-riot situations. I don’t need to be scary, instead I’m planning a party for her 13th where they can both be in attendance.
