okay so heres the deal, im 14 and my mom let me get my belly button pierced 2 years ago... i personally think piercings are a good way to express your self.. i would like a tongue piercing and a tatoo maybe a nose piercing just a stud tho... i will wait until im older for my nose n my tatoo but right now im asking my mom if i can get my tongue she said she will think about it but she really doesnt want to let me do it.. she said i dont want to feel like im putting a whole thru my own daughter even tho its my choice n i want it... does any one have any suggestions to convince my mom?? =)

"Just do it" is terrible advice. If the OP took this advice she might get in terrible trouble with her parents, and it would be your fault. Dont advise a minor to "just do it".

On another note, I would like to point out that this thread is 9 months old. The OP has more than likely either got the piercing, or gotten over it. Please pay attention to the dates of the threads.

I don't see whats wrong with letting a teenager do what they want to do with their body...There is a reason why we are each given our own bodies and thats to have the freedom knowing we can do what we want with them...Adults shouldnt go around saying yes and no to these types things. Im 15 and my mother wouldnt let me get any piercings untill i was 18 and so i decided that i wanted my belly button pierced so i just went ahead and did it. Now i have an agreement with mom that i can get my tongue and nose done for christmas...in my opinion just go ahead and do it darl dont want for a deffinite answer from someone who thinks they can control what you do with your body...

That is why you should always get pierced by a professional. Who in the world would get a piercing from someone who uses a needle that is a smaller gauge than the jewelry? Not smart. The needle should always be one gauge larger than the jewelry. Plus, getting your tongue pierced by a friend in the school bathroom is not smart. First of all, there is no possible way your friend sterilized that needle enough for piercing. Second of all, your friend could have seriously hurt you if she had hit the major artery in your tongue. From now on I suggest you go to a professional, and if your parents wont let you, just deal with it.

I hate to tell you, but while you are a minor, your parents can control what you do with your body. I am a mother and I would just like to say that adults can do what they darn well please. When you turn 18 then you get these priveleges, but until then, you are a kid, so deal with it.

Second of all, dont tell another minor (like yourself) to go ahead and do it. You dont know this person, her parents, or her medical conditions. Dont advise people to do something to themselves that could potentially hurt them.

try talking to your mom,explain to her how if she doesn't let you there are only a few more years until you can sign for it yourself..but don't sound like your are threating her, i begged my mom for years.and now next week (on my 16th birthday) she is going to let me get it done..so be patient it will come =]



p.s i didnt notice how old your topic was..but i hope my advice can come in handy

This is simple,
first you get a fake tongue ring at bewild.com and put it in. Show it to your mom and let her get over it and then have her take you for a real one
