I'm also a 14 year old female and I also would like my tongue to be pierced. My mother also goes against it. My father has told me multiple times that it's my body and that I can do what I wish with it, to express myself, where as my mother seems to want to control it, the only that that my dad has told me to do is keep my pants on, lol, but anyway, tongue piercings aren't permanent. I'm not sure if your mother did this, but my mother had my ears pierced when I was just a 1 year old, and she didn't seem to have a problem with me having two holes in my head then, so now that we're 14, what's the difference. If worst comes to worst, you can always take it out. Some good things about it are: expressing yourself, being original, being your own person, fashionable, you can always take it out,and it would be a new experience. Some bad things are: chipping your teeth, it could get infected, and probably trouble eating for the first week or so. Those are just some things that I thought up, because I'm also trying to convince my mother, who at the moment I am fighting with, but once it's over, I'm sure that I'll be able to start asking again.. And if she won't let me get my tongue pierced, I may start asking for a nose, lip, or monroe piercing. I just want to express myself in some sort of way. I think that I'll apologize to her tomorrow or whenever I see her again.
