Default piercing babies and toddlers.

My view is that its abuse in some ways, putting a small child through pain for vanity is wrong and cruel and I think it shouldn't be allowed.
Yes I am a moody cow!

It's legal in Spain to tattoo kids.

Apparently Spanish parents tattoo thier kids with ID/contact details.

I am in complete agreement. I think it should be illegal to mutilate a child in any way, including piercing and circumcision (unless medically necessary) and any other form of mutilation for aesthetic or religious reasons.

If you take a knife and deliberately cut a baby's arm, you'll go to prison. I can't understand why it's acceptable to make holes in it or cut off it's foreskin just because you think it looks good or your religious text says you should do it. It's very, very wrong in my opinion.

I hate it when I see little babies with pierced ears, its just wrong, and dangerous.

I wasnt allowed my ears pierced until I was 13, and even then my Mum had to really twist my Dads arm.

My god daughter had hers done when she was 7 because she asked if she could, ok she was only 7, but she made the decision herself and then her parents agreed she could.

Years ago I was stood in a chemist when this young tot was having her ears pierced, She was well up for it but the look on her face when they did the first one was Terrible
They served me to give her a chance to calm down but she hid behind her Granny (Mum wanted it but didn't have the Guts to inflict the Agony herself ) I gave her my best You'll be Ok look & left as I couldn't bare to be there for the other ear
Mutilation of ones body is a Personal choice & should only be done by the individual concerned, There body There choice.




I feel the same about Obese kiddy's as well, Usually struggling down the street with an Obese mother, To me this is child abuse.
