[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^It is not trolling to state a simple fact: you can remove earrings, but not the holes/scars left behind by piercing.[/quote]

Ok, so whatever, you may be able to see them. The kid will also likely have various scars, etc. If they are that hung up on holes left from piercings as opposed to anything else, they have bigger issues.

Are you one of the posters who won't cut her kid's hair or fingernails or vaccinate them because that "violates their bodily integrity" and they can't consent?[/quote]

No, I'm not. But keep reassuring yourself that only extreme/crazy people think it's unwise to pierce someone's ears--a totally unnecessary and purely decorative/sex-specific thing to do--before they are old enough to to want that for themselves. [/quote]

I think this is an issue on which reasonable people may disagree in good faith. Yes?[/quote]

Yes, and I never said otherwise. I didn't issue a criticism, I asked a WHY--Do adults who pierce their children's ears consider that the child might grow up to be a person who doesn't want them, and if not, why not?[/quote]
