When Kayleigh was about 9, I told her she couldn't have her belly pierced until she was 14 thinking it was years away. Now she's asked for it to be done for her birthday in a couple of weeks!
I let her have her nose done when she was 13, and to be fair to her, she has really looked after it. But is this too much?
Loads of her friends have it, and so do I, so I can't really tell her no. That's the problem, I have my nose and belly peirced (had my nipple done too, but luckily she never found out about that!), and I have 4 tattoos, so I can never really say that she can't get these things done when she is old enough.
The tattoo parlour/piercing place I go will do a belly at 13 with parents permission.
Be honest with me - is she too young at 14? And if she is, how do I tell her without her hating me forever! Or is 14 okay to have this done - after all, it's only a belly piercing and not a tatt, and it can come out if there's any problem. Am I making a big deal out of nothing?
Please be honest - c'mon, don't hold back with your opinions - I need the help!!!!
Im sorry amanda ( don't wanna upset you) but WAY to young in my opinion!!!
Sowweeee .... Its not the sort of thing i'd like to see on a young girl, i think if they want it done they should be old enough to walk in there without there parent to do it!
if shes willing to go through the pain, and has looked after the one she has i honestly dont see it being a problem hun. Up here their is girls as young as 11 got theirs done. I personally wouldnt get it done as im too scared lol
i think shes definitely to young,i have my nose and 1 tattoo , but i waited until i was much older. I think that things like that on children may give off the impression that they are older and may cause them to get some attention they cant quite handle as of yet. though she was able to look after it i dont think its quite a good idea
Personally i would let her get it done 14 is older now than when we were LOL
Only thing i will advise is that a couple of my friends daughters have had it done and ended up taking them out as with hormones still all over the place, everytime they were due on they would get a nasty discharge from it and they can easily get infected
i would say slightly too young at 13 ! i had my belly peirced when i was 15/16 but i didnt tell my mum i was getting it done!! except it hurt so much i rang her and said "waaaaah mum can you pick me up from town, ive just had my belly button pierced and it hurts too much to walk home " lol
not sure on that one - if you said to her 14, then you are going back on what you said and she will remember it. i don't know i just dont like 'kids' going round with their midrift showing - i think it attracts the wrong sort of attention, after all she is still a child.
good luck
