Same with tattoos.
I have no problem with piercings being just for the person. I have my belly done and also a hip tattoo which doesn't get seen often. I'm just wondering as she is 14.

Kids these days I suppose. Belly piercings were once only on porno chicks and prostitutes. Now it's just... not the case.

Sorta strange when you think of it. But that's trends.

Bloody hell, this is an old post - Kayleigh's 15 in 6 weeks!!!!

She did have it done, and took really good care of it. She has about 20 belly bars and is always changing them. So, I think I made the right decision (with all your help of course!)

God only knows what she's going to ask for her 15th though!!!

You gotta give teens more credit these days, they do know what they're doing! Glad to hear she's maintained it so well.

And let's just hope the next isn't a nipple, lol. That would be too much.

I wanted mine done at 15 but I had to wait til the day I turned 18. If my daughter ever wants one I'd like her to wait to 18 like I had to. I mean by then most girls are done developingand they can be more responsible about keeping it clean and doing the salt soaks.

I'm 16, and i personally dont think girls under my age should be piercing their belly buttons.
do you really want your 14 year old flaunting her belly to the world? I was 14 once, and i know that i probably would have done that... it gets attention from the boys. (sometimes OLDER boys too.)

just an opinion though

Hmm its a difficult one isnt it. I had my eyebrow done when i was 14..and then my belly button at 15, lookin back now i cannot believe my mum let me! I was always very grown-up for my age mind. But when i look back now, i am shocked i did this-i was really still just a little girl.

I don't really know what to advise! Sorry i'm not much help. You may find if you give a little your daughter will take a mile..but it could turn out that she has more respect for you for letting her have them! I know i did with my mum. I don't think there is a right or wrong answer here. I guess if she has wanted it done since she was 9 then you can be sure its not just a phase- she genuinly wants it.

She's only 2years away from being allowed to have it without your consent anyway, at least if u allow her this you know she'll be havin it done in a nice, clean licensed piercing shop rather then makin her mate do it for her behind your back like some kids do! The fact that she has come to you first and asked your permission shows she respects you and your opinion which in my opinion also shows maturity. Do what you consider right. Good luck! xx
