[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just had my eight month old daughter's ears pierced. I did it not because it is cultural but because, I had my ears pierced when I was about 12 years old and had a horrible experience. I wanted to spare her any pain or horrible recollection of having her ears pierced. I had a doctor do it and made sure he put in sterilized gold studs. He put numbing medicine on it prior to piercing. She cried only because the nurse was holding her. She was fine within minutes of it. I have been cleaning them as instructed but it really does not bother her. I don't like the look of earrings on her little face but I just wanted it done for her sake. I don't think its trashy or representative of a culture. It's a choice more and more people are making for their kids. Of late I have met a number of baby girls in the DC area with pierced ears and half of them are [b]white[/b] and not [b]trash[/b]y. Each to his/her own! [/quote] [/quote]
