You know? It never ceases to amaze me when parents are shocked to find their children beginning to experiment with their sexuality at this age.
What were you feeling / doing at that age? Why should it be any different for your children?
I understand that kids are way more susceptible to outside pressures to experiment these days, but please, 13 is not an unusual age for a girl to start having those feelings. Remember, females mature faster at this age. She probably has already started mentruating, and if that is the case, then her body has already begun the phase where experimentation will be on her mind ALOT! Girls are not so different from boys in that respect.
Be open and honest always. And, good luck! You'll need it! Raising a teenage girl is not gonna be easy!
