nothing personal...and i dont mean to offend... im just being to the point...pardon the pun... and taking up points based on the language used by yourself and others
my daughters ears were pierced young...and i believe the parents can properly decide if they wish to have this done... just as your sister has that right.
I have no problem with the practice of circumsising boys if the parents wish this to be done..
so does this make me, your sister and others a child abuser or barbarians or mutilators as per yours and others views...????
please rest assured Im only trying to debate the issue... in a similar way to other posters who put down the views of others in order to make theirs.
I think it should be up to the child, as and when they are old enough to decide.
There should be an age limit imposed for any sort of piercing.
What kind of parent puts a baby through having it's ears pierced is beyong my comprehension.
Cherry
that was what I was going to say, Resonance
just got in first.
Just to clarify...
my daughter was six years to the day when she had her ears pierced.I'm not agreeing with piercing the ears of children younger than that.
I only agree with male circumsision.
apart from that , nice post Res... but not exactly dealing with the issues in hand as i put them back to the OP and sought clarification on..
as i say , Overdramatic/overkill.... as often people who are detached from these things by personal experience and choice are.
But its nice to know what people think of you...!!
My daughter was eight I believe, perhaps seven. But she'd nagged for a long time before then to have it done. So I don't know if that qualifies as experience or not.
I thought I was dealing with the issues at hand? I believed them to be babies ears pierced and then someone mentioned circumcision. I'm a bit confused as to why I wasn't to be honest. But hey ho.
The words people used to describe this may be emotive, but that's their right. One can say "it's only an ear piercing", another may say "It's child mutilation". Depends on your view. Kind of what we have here. A differing view on a subject.
As for thinking anything of anyone, I don't attack a poster. Only the opinions. I never have and never will DeeCee. It's nothing personal, I've never done anything but admire your postings before.
Just because I disagree with you on one small matter, doesn't lessen that fact any.
go for it!
Pierce thier ears, the sooner the better.
especially if you have more than one child, or are close with your naighbours who may also have children.
When out and about in the local community, you could link them all together by the lobe in a long chain of self controling children.
they may be a little 'screachie', but they wont be wanting to roam too far from their siblings will they?
actually, why not just staple them together?
lp >parenting skills coming along nicely<
I think that its the parents right to decide when they have there childs ears pierced lol and the comments on it being totaly wrong make me laugh for 1 how many of you have girls ?????
and i had my daughters ears pierced at 8 months she is now 8 and they have never been infected or sore she now wants more earings !!!!!!!
