Mother Concerned About School Tracking Daughter's Period

A mother is questioning why her daughter's school has her personal information.

A mother was shocked to find out her daughter's school was tracking her period.

A 37-year-old mother found out her daughter's school was monitoring her period cycle. This was after her daughter started her periods and had an irregular cycle, which is normal.

The school nurse called the mother about her daughter's irregular cycle, which made the mother wonder how they knew this information.

The mother was surprised that the school knew about her daughter's period.

The mother from New Jersey shared her story on Reddit. She said the school nurse called her about her daughter's irregular cycle.

The nurse told the mother that her daughter's period lasted longer than normal. The nurse also said her daughter asked for a pad, which meant her cycle was only 19 days.

The mother pointed out that her daughter had just started her periods, so irregularities were expected. However, the nurse did not accept this explanation.

The mother asked the nurse who had access to her daughter's information and why they were tracking it. The nurse said only medical staff could see the information.

The mother asked her daughter who she talked to about her period. She found out her father had contacted the school the previous month.

The daughter asked the nurse for a pad, and the nurse said her cycle had been going on too long. The nurse asked if she was sure she had her period.

The daughter asked the nurse for a pad again, and the nurse said it was too soon for her period. The mother realized the school knew her daughter's cycle details.

The mother had given her daughter a 'period purse' with pads, but she had to visit the nurse when it was not replenished. The mother wondered if her concerns were justified.

The mother asked if other parents had experienced their child's school tracking their cycle. She was not sure what was normal for the school to do.

The mother wondered if she was being paranoid, but she did not remember her middle school tracking her cycle. She did not know who to talk to about stopping the tracking.

One respondent commented that 6 days for a period is normal, and the nurse's information was incorrect.

A school nurse said tracking a student's period is not normal and not within the scope of a school nurse. Another person commented that the situation was unusual.
