Answer 2

That's terrible. Someone requested a query in child and child approximately in the event that they would get their 6 month child's ears pierced. I real do not fully grasp it?! Why could you place your child via that suffering? It does not 'seem well' it has no clinical reason - it relatively must be unlawful as much as a intelligent age. If a youngster can prefer to do it then by way of all way with parental consent then why don't you, however a child?! I had my ears pierced for my ninth birthday - I requested and my Mum paid a top class to visit a extra costly position (definately NOT claires!) to be certain that the character doing it used to be certified and the gear blank. I haven't any different piercings, and do not desire to any extent further - I do not relatively like them, besides ears. I are not able to suppose in need of to do this to my youngster. He's a boy so it is very not likely besides, however I would not do it to just a little woman both - it is in order that flawed!

When I lived under my family's roof my mother made a rule- if I made any new holes in my body or got tattooed, she would pick out my clothes. So, I didn't get anything done. Since you're asking in the Religion and Spirituality section, I would remind you one of the 10 commandments is to honor your father and mother. And I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) that in Islam, after Allah (and maybe Mohamed) you should honor your mother, then your father (but I guess you know this if you follow it).
If this is really important to you, you may want to try and convince your parents that this is a positive thing. Try buttering them up first by helping out around the house for a week, or whatever is best for your situation. Then try to talk with them rationally. Try not to let your emotions take over the conversation. And if they still don't agree- hey, you can always get it done when you move out.

Answer 4

You didn't give your age, so I can not advise you. If you are around 16 or so, I'd say go ahead. Your old enough to be responsible for the consequences. If you are only 13 or younger I'd say wait. Piercing parlors are required to ask for an Id and usually have you sign a waiver stating your age.

Answer 5

Well...it kinda depends on how old you are and whether or not you truly respect your parents. Afterall, they are the ones paying the bills and putting a roof over your head. But, on the other hand, my youngest son came to my husband(his Dad)& I and asked for a tattoo at age 16. We let him get it, but we did give him a couple of rules. One being it could not be anything offensive and second, he had to pay for it. My point being, if you go to your parents and let them know you are willing to pay for the piercing, present your wishes in a polite, respectful manner, they just might say yes.

Answer 6

Your parents may seem bossy and dorky but they really know- and want- what's best for you. Talk to them rationally about getting the piercing. Give them LEGITIMATE reasons why you think you should have it done. They'll respect your maturity about it.

Don't go behind their back and get it done; they'll lose trust in you. And trust me- there will be other issues in the next few years where you will want their trust.

It's not the end of the world.

Answer 7

Well, I'm in my early 30's and do have a good recollection of what it's like to be beholden to parents. My Mom would have killed me (that's what I believed) so I would never have done it. You've got years to put in another piercing so why the rush? I do my thing now because they already raised me and I don't have to explain myself, I just love them.

Answer 8

I would be VERY careful about where you decide to have it done. My daughter did get her second piercing without coming to me she had it done at school in the cafe' yes I was mad, not so much about the disobedience as I was for the fact that she put herself in harms way, diseases are spread by dirty needles and such, Yes if you have it done they will get over it BUT please remember these words be VERY VERY careful. Peace

Answer 9

Me personally?
I wouldn't do it. I'd explain why I wanted it done, and that it would really be nice if they could back me up on it. I'd also tell them that i respect them but it's something i'd REALLY like to get done.... I'd see what they say and WHY they DON'T want you to get it done, I mean who knows? Maybe they think you'll get an ear infection or something and die? =]

Just my advice!
Good luck!

P.S. uhm, you already have your ears pierced as it is don't you?

Answer 10

If you already have one, I'm wondering why they would abject to another. I would ask them first and if they say no, respect them. Then when you are of age and not living with them, then you can make that decision.
My advise is ask first. Give them your respect.
