Piercings on children/babies

[Haleigh]

Would you let your child, of course being old enough to willingly decide, get a tattoo/piercing before the age of 18?

I don't have kids, but if I did, I absolutely would not.

It would have to be a super mature kid. Way more mature than I was at 18 when I got my first one. 😀

I wouldn't let them do a tattoo, just because teenagers go through a lot of different phases, what they likes a year ago, might be totally different. However I wouldn't mind letting them get a cartilage or nose piercing if they truely desired. After begging my mom, for nearly 3 years, on my 16th birthday she let me do my nose and my tragus and I have since had them.

No to a tattoo under 18. Piercings are a bit different for me but I'd want my kid to hold off on facial piercings until 17.

i was thinking more about the tattoos. But if they get to 16 and want a nose or cartilage piercing, that would probably be OK as long as they had good grades and shit.
