Answers:
Well, You are In a bit of a jam there. If you are babysitting this little girl and you can't get in the pool, then don't let the baby in the pool either. Find other fun activities to do. Also, I understand you want to obey your mom, and that is really important. I think your mother is concerned you will not be responsible enough to change your tampons regularly, which sometimes (rarely) can make someone very ill (Toxic Shock Syndrome). I am a mom of 2 teens and I know I was not eager to have them use tampons. However, if you educate yourself about TSS and prepare a good explanation for your mom as to why you have to use them here for safety reasons, she might allow it just this time.
