Do you support my parents on this?

Question

am 13 and I have 3 piecing on my ears and I want one on my nose, tongue and belly botton but my parents say am putting holes on my body.Do you think they are right for leting me piece my ears and not other parts of my body..Should I go and get it aways

Answer 1

just go ahead and do it once its done its done and they cant do anything about it

Answer 2

I'm 16. I'm Underway To Getting Seven Holes Put In My Ears, But That Is A Traditional Piercing. Ear Piercing Is Widely Accepted. However Other Body Piercings Are Not Seen As Acceptable For Younger Teens And Children. There's A Reason You Have To Have Parent Permission At Your Age. Wait Until Your 18, and See If You Still Want To Pierce Your Body. Respect Your Parents Wishes. After all, They Spent Several Years Of Your Life Changing Your Diapers, Clothing You, Bathing You, Feeding You. And Now Just Like They Did Then, They Pay For You To Do all Of These Things. Your Under Their House, Their Rules. Getting It Done Without Their Permission Is A Bad Idea. Not Only Are There Health Risks (Because No Good Piercer Will Pierce Your Nose, Tongue, And Belly Button, without Your Parents Permission). But You Probably Aren't Thinking about The Long Run. A Hole In your Nose Will Be there Forever, a Belly-button Piercing Would Stretch Out If You Gained Weight Or Became Pregnant, Not To Mention You Would Have To Wear Clothing That Accommodates The New Piercing, So It Doesn't Rip Out From Snagging. And Piercing Your Tongue Is The Most Dangerous Of Piercings In My Mind. The Nervous Structure Of The Tongue Is Not Made For Piercing, Too Easy For One Wrong Move To Be Made, And You Could Never Be Able To Smile Again. No. I Would Wait Until Your 18. Then Have at It!

Ps. I Agree Wiht Your Parents Whole Heartedly. Your Mom And Dad Must ♥Love♥ You Alot.

Answer 3

They can stop you. Until you are 18 you need their permission.

As a parent of girls not much other than you I would say for most of the piercings, it's your body, if you choose to mutilate it then go ahead. The problem with facial piercing other than ears is they can severally limit your job prospects when you get older. A lot of places have policies of not employing people with facial piercings. Belly piercings very easily become infected and could cause you a lot of pain. These things I would explain to my girls...(actually my eldest has a lip piercing, it looks like a great big spot). It's possible that these are your parents objections too. If you ask them they might explain that.

Tongues however are a different matter. Please please please do not do it. There is a major blood vessel that runs through your tongue, if the person doing the piercing is a fraction of an inch out they can pierce that. It is impossible to stop the bleeding without going to hospital and you can bleed to death in about 4 minutes. If you aren't convinced, do some research it's absolutely true I promise you. Fortunately my daughters both know this are are way to intellegent to take a risk like that. If your parents know it too then I'm sure you can understand there objection.

OK so should you just go and get it done. Well, as I say I'm pretty sure you need parental consent so you would probably not be able to get it done at any place that cared about its reputation so that's a bad start. Also your parents would be deeply hurt at your betrayal of their trust. You will have your body for a long time, why not wait until you can choose whether to get it pierced or not rather than cause parents, and yourself, a great deal of grief.

Answer 4

Well in a way yes they are right.. even though u might want all them holes on your body right now when u mature now most likely u wont want them.. but on the other hand they should let u expirience atleast one more piercing that isnt on your ears and pray that youll be good with atleast one. when i was 13 i remember i also wanted all those piercings and i got 2 on my earlobe when i was 10 and 2 at the top of my ear when i was 12.. and the other 2 were behind my parents back they got mad 4 a little bit and then got over it.. but after that i wanted my belly and toungue and they said nooo.. but i managed to raise up the money for my belly button so my mother was fine with it even though my dad was pissed but wutever then i got my belly at 14 and now im over the whole piercing phase... so yeah dont do anything u would regret in a couple of years

Answer 5

I don't think they are wrong speaking from experience. I have three piercings on my ears and also had my tongue done only to find it was just a phase and after awhile the tongue ring started to annoy me because it keep clanging against my teeth. I learned that it could break my teeth and that would not be cool trying to be sexy with no teeth lol. As for the belly piercing you should wait cuz the last thing you want is an infection in your belly button because it has to constantly be cleaned. It also makes it hard for you to wear shirts until it heals. I feels 5 times worse then when you got your third hole in your ear and had to pull your shirt past your ear while it heals. So just imagine how much pain you are gonna feel with your shirt on. I say wait until your older and if you still want it then you will be more ready to deal with that pain because it is no joke.

Answer 6

You may not like it when they tell you NO! when you want to do something but you should know they are doing it for a very good reason, because they LOVE YOU!!! In just five more years you will be old enough to put holes any where you want to but for now respect their wishes for you and do as they ask. Next year you may decide that you don't really want that after all. I know it may seem dumb to you right now but it isn't going to be too long before you understand far too well the reasons why they do and say the things they do. If they didn't love and care about you they would let you do and go where ever you want and that could lead to something bad happening to you. Just think about a little longer and maybe for a moment try to see things from where they are, they've all ready been where you are.

Answer 7

You are still growing, and, at age 13, developing. It may seem cool to have these body parts pierced at first, but consider the fact that, since you are still growing, any piercing work done now (which, by the way, at this age, usually requires a parent to actually be there in case a medical emergency from the procedure should arise) would, most likely, re-close when you get older, thus requiring another procedure then. Your parents are right on this--sounds real dull, I know--but, take advantage of their experience on this old planet. Follow their advice. When you get older, however (say, 18), then you can do as you wish.

Answer 8

I think that later on you might regret all of your piercings- so they might want you to slow down on th piercings. Don't go and get it anyway- you need to be 16, or you'll end up getting pierced at an unsanitized place- the only kinds that will pierce you- and could end up with something nasty (you could get infections, or your tongue paralyzed if you do it wrong, or even possibly AIDS). Wait for their permission, as long as you are living with them. When you're living in your own house fine.
However, if you are still insistent maybe ask to be allowed to get your nose or belly button pierced (tongue piercings are an aquired taste, pun not intended) for a christmas or birthday present. Or myabe reasonably present them with an argumeny, although if you act childish chances are you will not be allowed.

Answer 9

Piercing your body leaves scars. I know it sounds cool, and everyone is doing it. Tongue piercings cause you to chip your teeth, piercing your nose will leave a big scar not to mention when you go to get a job, either of these will prevent people from hiring you. Piercing you bellybutton also leaves a large scar. You will have to live with these for the rest of your life. I agree with your parents, wait until you have some more life experience.

Answer 10

You have enough piercings. Why do you need your tongue pierced? The ears are enough for now if you want to get your tonguem belly and nose pierced get it done when you can go with out your parents.

Answer 11

well this is what I would do wait until your like 15 or 16 then they know you are serious about it and tell them that you will make good grades that you want them to know that your are responsible enough. maybe by then you would deside not to but if they know that your doing your part and being relatively good they might work with you explain it is just a piercing it is not like a tattoo you can take this out whenever but more they say no the more your going to want to have it. so I would have a discussion with them I hope it helps
