Should children be getting their ears pierced? |
|
I'm not sure how common it is in the U.S., but in other countries I've frequently seen parents with very young daughters (4 years old or younger) with pierced ears. Assuming parents are doing this without consent of the child (to say nothing of whether children that age have the ability to give consent), and there's no medical reason to do it, are you OK with it? Or do you find it a barbaric act? I personally have no problem with it.
