ear Piercing.. babies

[Dee1985]

how pathetic i would never think that about my daughter, like u said it is your personal oppinion!

 

[Dee1985]

dont be silly sami i want to no if u would do it or not thats y i asked on here. just dont Appreciate ppl being rude and OVER THE TOP

"child abuse"
"not thinking my daughter is pretty anuf"

ppl are against it kris wasnt happy when he knew

 

we are a bunch of opinionated women!!

now ain't that the truth!

I'm not against piercings at all, lord knows I'm covered in them! But at the right age. Not until at least 5years old, if not older I think. Body piercing (belly, etc) is illegal until a child is 13 AND has parental consent, and it amazes me that ear piercing is still allowed for young children and babies.

Each to their own I guess.

thanks for your reply. sami

it is strange the way there is a age limit for other piercings?
i was 11 when i got my belly button done but i lied and said i was 14 lol
to be honest i wish i had started this topic before i goit them done i maybe would have changed my mind. but every one i spoke to was all for it, especially my mum and u no what mothers advice is like. i always listen to her.

i think you have to look in the mirror and ask yourself who you have actually done it for your daughter might have decided she did'nt even want them doing alot of people do

 

[Urchin]

Yeah it's like you're just presuming that she wanted it done! How do you know?

 

[Dee1985]

im 20yrs old and i have never known a girl my age to not want them done so im happy.

if my daughters not then i would feel terrible but its a risk i took.

 

[Dee1985]

what are child wants? thats something we dont no and make our own choice. and thats the way it will be untill they are atleast 3

So, just imagine that you could have asked her if she wanted them done, if she knew about the risks and the pain do you really think she would have agreed?

 

My mum pierced my ears when I was 2 and I hated her for it coz it turns out I am allergic to gold! They got infected over and over and over again

 

[Dee1985]

just imagin this just imagin that, all the risks, for god sakes its pierced ears get over it!

its done!!!!

 

[Urchin]

erm... you did ASK for our opinions.

.like i said before

come on hun, don't get upset or cross, you DID ask for people's opinions............that's always a dangerous thing to do, especially with something that you know people will disagree with.

Chin up, whats done is done, she is your daughter so it's your choice, no-one elses.

 

[Dee1985]

i no..

it just infuriated me when some one mentioned child abuse and not thinking my daughter is pretty anough

 

[tommy]

Dionne i did'nt intend to upset u it is my personal opinion and in nooooo way did i intend to make out anything about you personaly

voting thing at the top of the post doesn't seem to work there is only one choice of answer - not sure page is playing up? error as such

Isn't it strange the things that provoke controversy?!

Personally I wouldn't do it, and I don't like the way it looks, but it's hardly child abuse! But then I don't like those hairbands lots of people put on baby girls when they've got no hair!

To me, a baby is cute enough without embellishment.

 

[Dee1985]

Look this aint good preg woman hormones flying lol.
i have done it i can honestly say i now feel like shit and am going to feel guilty when i pick my lil baby up from childminders tonight. But i just hope that Dior is happy i done it but it will be yrs till i no, the best thing i can do now is look after them so they course her no trouble

 

[Skidoo]

You could always take them out. I'm sure the holes would heal up with no marks at this age and you could give your daughter the option again when she's older.
