Preparing a Back to School Emergency Kit for my Middle School Niece

Hi friends and lovers of Homeschooling, were still in the New year season, so I'll say happy New year to you all. I just realized that some parents neglect they're supposed to give to their girl child/children who are up to the age of puberty. Most parents in my country feels that providing food, shelter and some clothings are the only needs of the girl child. Once a girl reaches the age of puberty, we all know that she starts experiencing menstrual cycle and needs special attention from her parents or will get it from outside, which might lead to teenage pregnancy if she's not matured in taking some decisions for herself. The reason for this post is because of my effort to help my girl children after I overheard a conversation between my middle school niece and her friend during their visit to my house. I overheard her friend telling her that her parents don't even bother to buy her sanitary pads when she's experiencing her menstrual cycle and she has to ask from her male friends to help her with some money to purchase sanitary pads. This broke me down because I know the implications of asking the opposite sex (male) money for that purpose, although, some male friends may not have ulterior motives towards the girl child but in all sincerity it's very dangerous and could lead the girl into abusive (sexual) relationship.
