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?? =)

kay, some people may tell youu to just go behind your parents back and do it, and that it will all be okay. i know my family love me (sometimes! xD) but if youu piss your parents off enough they could potentially kick youu out. mine threaten too. and they did the same thing to my older brother. he was out at least three times. if youu want it done. be responsible and do it properly. I'm from Ontario, and youu only have to be sixteen to get any piercing. xD be smart. and if youu get it done by someone who will do it without parental consent, theres something wrong. maybe they don't know what they're doing and maybe they're not clean. do youu really want an infection and end up in a hospital. also if youu get an infection on a piercing for the love of god DO not take out the piercing the whole will heal up with the infection inside! NOT SMART. and youu will have nasty scarring. and it could make youu sick. my best advice is to do it in a way that youu are happy and so are your parents and youu know that nothings going to happen. good luck !

I think you should talk to her help around the house even try and pay for it yourself but if you could wait til your 15th birthday ask her to take you for your birthday and tell her that when it heals if you don't like it ill take it out but of course by the time it heals she would have forgot bout it but only get done by professionals doing it yourself could be VERY dangerous I hope this works for you and if this is what you really want don't listen to crap like people will judge you and think your trashy people judge you weather you have piercings or not so that's just a bunch of crap well have fun with you piercing

im fourteen and i'm lucky to have a dad like mine as he's very laid back (ive got my belly button, tongue, numerous ear piercings, nose and lip pierced). he only said i could have what i wanted done if i paid for it myself and it wasnt going to affect my school and that if it did i would do what they said - also luckily my school allows us to wear retainers in facial piercings. i think you should wait until youre a little older to get it done so your mom is totally cool with it and is satisfied that you know how to look after your piercing and will be able to handle the consequenses that may come with it. and i wouldnt go behind her back - she will find out. my dad expects one thing from me and that is honesty - i mean what if your piercing gets infected badly and you need to go to the hospital? whos going to care for you? just think and make sure you want it done for definate before you do it!
