When I was in 3rd and 4th grade there were already a considerable number of girls with obvious development. I wasn't allowed to drink lots of sodas or eat fast food and I think that's why I didn't start 'til I was nearly 13. Just some thoughts!
Actually, research has shown that girls are developing earlier because all of the cows and chickens are shot up with estrogen to make them bigger so they have more meat to sell. All that extra estrogen in women's bodies causes early development. It also leads to higher rates of breast cancer.
