Tell if she can't get it that it's no big deal it's hard the first couple times it just takes practice. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't of wanted my mom inserting it for me or hovering over me while I tried to do it. Just make sure you are available for questions.
I remember me & a girlfriend coaxing another friend to use a tampon for the first time. We were all about 16 & wanted to go swimming. What an adventure it was. None of us had a drivers license but we snuck my sisters car and drove to the store. On the way home, we stopped at a gas station so my sister wouldn't notice the change in her gas gage. You should have seen the gas guys face when we said "please fill it back to a quarter of a tank". Anyway, we got home & waited for our friend to come out of the bathroom successful & ready to go swimming. Well, she walked around on her tippy toes with her butt sticking out for the rest of the day. I guess she didn't get it in far enough. Silly story, really, but it was soooo funny then!
