What is the appropriate age for a piercing?
My daughter is 14 and has asked me for my permission to have her belly button pierced. She’s not troubled and does well in school. Still, I think she’s too young!
What is the appropriate age for a piercing? She needs to grow up at one point or another. I’m just not sure!
What’s your opinion?
A well placed piercing in a well-formed belly button can be sexy and cool… She’s a kid… Does she really need to try to look sexy and cool at 14? I don’t think so.
Piercings and tattoos are a form of self-mutilation. It shouldn’t be that important to her.
She can wait a few years. Really.
