[quote=Anonymous]My mother was born in Cuba and I was born here. She had my ears were pierced at age 6 mos. Yes, it is a cultural thing, but I don't know the specific reasons, other than it looks cute. Love my baby pictures with those little gold studs. We are white FWIW. I actually think doing it at an early age is safer. The mom is the one taking care of the piercing site to avoid infection, etc. I know too many tweens who have gotten infections, gotten earrings stuck in place, all sorts of ugly stuff. If I had to do it over again, I would have had my daughter's ears pierced as an infant as well. As for the people saying it is trashy, these are the intolerant ugly white Americans who are an embarrassment to our country. [/quote]
