Comment:

 Hi @michiko40. There were
 [https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/7348
 /descriptions-moved-above-ch.png accessibility and usability improvements]
 introduced way back in BuddyPress 2.9 for screen reader users  where
 descriptions were moved above the field visibility settings buttons. In
 addition, the description was either placed above or below the respective
 form controls depending on the control.

 So either the theme developer has not updated the theme you're using for
 BP 2.9 and above or you don't have the latest version of the theme.

 You could update the parent theme yourself and I can point you to the
 changes expected in free themes. Having said that, it'd be better if you
 get the latest version from the theme developer as there might be other
 improvements added for the premium theme. Let me know.
