Well, it doesn't surprise me. Although there's no real proof that the hormones in meat and milk cause early puberty and menstruation, I wouldn't be surprised if this is true. My niece got her period at the age of NINE, and we all thought this was shocking, but I know for a fact that my brother and his wife are die-hard carnivores and have fed their daughter a diet heavy in meat and milk right from the start.

She said that girls who develop rapidly suffer from lower self-esteem and tend to be more promiscuous.

I take issue with the above statement. There is no proof of this. My aforementioned niece developed rapidly, and she doesn't have low self esteem and is not promiscuous. I know this is only anecdotal, but I still believe the above statement is erroneous.
