[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For us., I always delayed until DD never wavered and understood that it meant cleaning every day, etc. I would have done it at any age, but I wanted to make sure SHE was ready - she often wavered. I reiterated it was something cool, but a responsibility. At 7, she “got it”. She happily dealt with all the PITA stuff, like multiple cleanings a day, turning, and we never had an issue with infection, etc. She understood what she was in for. She was ready, and now wouldn’t mind a second one. So we’re waiting on that for a few years. [/quote] This is our approach and our 7 year old isn't ready and she knows it. She has minimal interest because she's scare of the piercing and doesn't feel ready to take on the responsibility of cleaning and caring for them. She still fights us on other regular hygiene like brushing teeth or showering (not every day but sometimes it still takes coaxing). Every kid is different. [/quote]
