Best age for boys' ear piercing?

[Ono]

I really have no objection to ear piercings, but I face a different problem. My daughter wants a naval piercing and Im reluctant to let her do it. I dont know how i should approach the situation so as to cause her to lose interest in it

I cant stand it when you see little babies with ear rings. It's all wrong. The poor things

I totally agree! I don't think it's fair at all and it just doesn't look nice on really young children.

A woman in my office brought up an interesting argument as to why to pierce babies ears rather than wait until they are older. When they are young they are less likely to play with the piercings and hence likely not get infection. Also they are more likely to stay still while the piercing takes place, or more to the point, you can hold a baby still more easily than an older child in order to do the piercing on them.
Just a thought! don't shoot me!

I dont think a boy should pierce their ears at all. Why? would you let a child make their own decision? That's so stupid sometimes parents try to act like best friends to their child and that's a BIG mistake that is why you are the parent, who is responsible for your child's safety, behavior etc.

Ear piercing for boys, men is totally out of style.

dont play the race card or the sexist card if a kid wants it done the rents' better say ya cuz he/she will get that peircing one way or another

if a kid said he wanted to die, would his parents let him, because hes going to die one day? NO!

its a parents choices until the child is old enough to decide for themselves and many things are taken into account and age is one of them along with sex!

It should always be the parent decission to pierce baby's ears. It should not be gender based. For babies ,the parents have to take care of the new piercings so it can be a parents full right. Boys or girls, there should be no difference

5 years ago our doctor pierced our daughter's ears in the delivery room. 3 years ago we had a son. we had told the doctor to pierce his ears in the delivery room

[Guest]

why not wait until they are older and so can decide for themselves?? What if they dont want their ears pierced??

[Shoner]

If they do not wish to have their ear piercings anymore, then they are able to take them out aren't they? That leaves them the option, later on, if they wish to wear an earring or two.

I do like to see both Boys and Men wearing an earring in both ears. It looks cute and would rather see them with a small diamond stud in, and such rather than hoops and just ordinary big ball studs.

I say at first, it's the parents choices if they wish to do this to their child, that way, the child later on, then has the choice whether as to keep them in or take them out.

Only ear piercing?

Why not a Prince Albert & some tattoos while you're there?

Just because the poor little sods don't have any appreciation of 'fashion', no reason not to inflict it on them just because you like it.

Pure lies,

You post on every piercing thread and your stories change from thread to thread.

You have some sort of ear piercing fetish.

Omg, did you have both of his ears pierced? I want to have my sons ears pierced but when he's about 4 and I'll ask him if he wants it done.

Are you crazy, you believe this persones lies about them having their childrens ears pierced in a delivery room immediatley after birth.

I guess you think the conversation went like this.

Dr...Congrats, you have a beautiful baby boy.

Tay...Thanks Dr, now any chance you can pierce his ears for him before we take him home.

Dr...Not a problem, I have my ear piercing gun and studs handy here, choose a pair of earrings and I we will be good to go.

Tay...Thanks Doc.


What a crock of shite, claiming your childrens ears were pierced in a delivery room. You have a piercing fetish and post these stupid stories on EVERY piercing thread in these forums.

Pure lies.
