My best guess would be that you walk into a shop and buy one, which might be a bit awkward but nowhere near as awkward as telling a parent. Sure, some parents might not let you out alone to go to a store at that age, but for those who have parents who will I honestly don't see why they'd tell their parents. When you need a car to visit a shop then - unless you live in the middle of the wilderness or something - I worry about the state your fitness, even if you are 10.
I grew up in the outskirts of a meduim-sized city. There were three Wal-Marts, all about the same distance away: eight miles. Through the city. And you're telling me any 10-year-old kid would be allowed to walk that kind of distance on a regular basis?
The idea that a kid would walk around with enough money to buy pads is foreign to me, personally. I know it shouldn't, but it almost surprises me.
Anywho, I told my mom because it was an emergency. I needed her to go to the store then and there.
As for others, I imagine they're unsure of what to do. You start bleeding out of there the first time, you don't know anything about it. Just that you need a pad and mom can help with that and questions. Like cramps and back pain- 10-12 years old, you don't what's normal pain.

It sounds sensible for you to tell someone in that case.

I'm just saying that you can't expect it to be convenient for everyone to just walk to the store to pick something up.
The idea that a kid would walk around with enough money to buy pads is foreign to me, personally. I know it shouldn't, but it almost surprises me.
Anywho, I told my mom because it was an emergency. I needed her to go to the store then and there.
