INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You will want to approach someone who you trust and who has the power to help you. This may be a parent, guardian, relative, or family friend. Choose a person who you know will keep your personal information private. The person that you ask will also need to have the money to purchase a bra for you or the ability to take you out shopping. If you are uncertain about who to ask, it may help to write down a quick list of potential people. Then, try to assess the pros and cons of approaching each person on your list. For example, next to "Dad" you might write, "I trust him the most," but, "I'm not sure he'd be comfortable talking about this." Sit in front of a mirror and walk through a mock conversation in which you ask for a bra. You can do both sides of the dialogue. Or, you can get a trusted friend to practice with you. This will better prepare you to accept counterarguments and to stay calm. Don't pick a time when the person is particularly rushed or stressed. They will be less likely to listen to your request and give you a positive answer. Instead, find a time when they are relaxed and in a good mood. If you are talking with a parent, perhaps after dinner would be a good idea. To have their undivided attention, it is best if you talk with them when no one else is around. This will also ensure that whatever you have to say will stay private. Maybe mention something when you are both in the car. Or, perhaps try to get their attention right before you head to bed. If you are not quite ready to have a full conversation, you could briefly mention your request a few times over the course of a couple of weeks. Perhaps talk about how you will need some new clothing items for school? Or, you could talk about how a friend of yours just got her first bra. Keep it casual to see how your listener will react. You might say, "I've been thinking that I might need some new sports clothes for gym class." Then, you can bring up the idea of getting a sports bra and a regular one too. Many women have been exactly where you are and they were probably nervous too. This is a very common occurrence and can actually be an exciting time if you see it as another entry point into your teen years. If you are asking another woman for a bra, such as your mom, you might ask her about her first bra shopping experience. If your nerves seem to get the best of you, take a few minutes and think about a time when you were afraid and pushed through your fears. Tell yourself, "I did it then and I can do it now." Just keep repeating this until you get up the courage to ask.

SUMMARY: Decide who to ask. Practice your conversation. Wait for the perfect time. Talk one-on-one. Drop a few hints. Remember that you are not alone. Visualize another brave moment.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: A good boundary protects you emotionally and physically. Think about the way your parent makes you feel. Commit to setting boundaries that shield you from the impact of their toxic behavior. For instance, if your parent insists on calling you every day, you might decide to limit your calls to once a week. Remember, you do not have to pick up the phone or immediately respond to texts. Consequences are the actions you take when someone does not respect your boundaries. Think about what you will do if your parent disregards your wishes. Choose consequences that you are prepared to follow through with. The best consequences follow naturally from the other person's actions. For instance, if your toxic parent calls you and starts berating you for not wanting to have a phone conversation every day, you might decide to hang up the phone. Meet with your parent and have an honest conversation about what you need from them. Be kind, but stay firm. Make sure to also tell your parent what you will do if they don't respect your boundaries. Have the conversation at a time when you and your parent are both calm. Your parent may get angry at you for setting limits. Don't let them guilt you into backing down. It's your right to create boundaries you're comfortable with. Frame your concerns using "I" language. For instance, instead of saying "It's not reasonable that you expect me to spend an hour on the phone with you every day," try saying, "I feel stifled because of how much we talk, and I'd rather schedule a chat once a week instead." Your parent may try to test your boundaries. If they don't take your wishes seriously, carry out the consequence you promised. If you fail to follow through with a consequence, your parent will think they can continue violating your boundaries with no repercussions.

SUMMARY: Decide which boundaries you want to set. Decide on consequences. Tell your parent about your boundaries. Follow through with consequences.
