Getting ear piercing out of the way as a baby saves a trip down the road, but the debate continues to rage on about whether or not it's the best choice for the baby. Can a child who is too young to speak be forced to endure the pop of a piercing gun and some fake diamond studs?
While some parents like the look of pierced ears on their baby, making a permanent body modification decision for your child before they're old enough to have their own opinion about it is controversial topic between parents. Ultimately, piercing a child's ears is not the same as tattooing their foreheads, but all parents involved should agree before taking the trip to Claire's.
