My dad has been extremely supportive when it comes to my periods, among many other things. He was there for my first period and many after that. I do not have to think twice before talking about the throbbing pains or the edgy behaviour my hormones make me go through.

Doesn’t the word “babysitting” signify a temporary arrangement? A replacement, that is supposed to fill in till the original caretaker comes back and resumes her duty?
