Why do kids always stare at your chest even if you haven't gone through puberty?

If you are a girl, then it must be because they have noticed other girls around your age who have started or gone through puberty. When you are a girl, they will look at your chest because at your age they would expect that you have developed, or at least started to develop breasts. not to worry though, some people are late with puberty and everyone reaches puberty at a different rate...i.e, I am a 17 year old guy and I still haven't gone through puberty. I have no hair around my genitals or under my arms, no facial hair but its because I am a late bloomer. Hang in there, it will happen eventually.
