My parents would not let me get my ears pierced until I was "older". I convinced them to let me get them done as a junior high graduation present - so I was about 14. My sister never wanted to get them pierced, and even til this day she never has done it. I've always thought it should be a choice.

@Janet357 it wasn't hard but I was only in my early twenties. I didn't get my daughters ears pierced and they decided on their own when they were teenagers that they wanted pierced ears.

I really do not know since l have a son.. But most parents do that when they are still young to aboid having them traumatized when they can recall things back. That’s why sometimes you can see babies wearing earrings already. It is best to ask your pediatrician about it l am sure they know how to make it safely to babies.

I think I was 4 or 5 when I had mine done. Mine got stuck in a blanket when i was young and tore my ear. Now my ears are closed and I don't plan to get them pierced again.

Nowadays, they pierce baby girls as early as baby stage. I got mine on my left ear when I was 25. Lol

@Janet357 I don't wear anymore. Last month when I sorted my stuff, I found my earring, earring because just one. I tried it on I thought the pierce would be gone.

I don't know. I think unless a child wants their ears pierced, it shouldn't be done.
