Do think it is okay for a parent to deny a child a piecing because they dont like the way it looks?

my mother refuses to let me get snakebites because she doesnt like they way they look.Do think it is okay for a parent to deny a child a piecing because they dont like the way it looks?
no because its your body and your choice ... you should be able to express yourself however you wantDo think it is okay for a parent to deny a child a piecing because they dont like the way it looks?
of course its ok. They are your parents!


First of all, the sole purpose of a piercing is for THE WAY IT LOOKS! So of course they are going to judge it by the way it looks. Girls by the thousands are removing tattoos and closing piercings because they totally regret getting them. If only their parents didn't let them!


This is not a right. It is not something that your parents are mean for ';depriving'; you of. If they didn't clothe or feed you, you could complain, but this is ridiculous. The key word in your question is CHILD.


When your 18 and you still think you want it, then go out on your own and get it, but you have to abide by your parents if you live in their house.


Plus, get real, a lot of these piercings are already cliche' and boring. they use to be something unique, but every other person has one now, so its just common and boring.


Listen to your parents. You might be one someday
I don't really think it should be up to the parent if it's not something that could be harmful to you or someone else, but you're in the same boat with thousands of other 15-16-17 year olds.





Tattoos, I understand parents worrying about. They're permanent. They're often a bad judgment. Piercings and hairstyles... who cares? Change them if you change your look.
your mums right. you'll thank her later on when you apply for a job.





grocery store cashiers... have to remove or cover their piercings. Fast food cashiers the same fate. Alot of jobs shun piercings... you may ruin your chance at a great job such as a banker for having a piercing that is readily visibile on any part other than your ears.
I have to agree that while you live under their roof it's their rules, when you are old enough to pay for your own upkeep then you can get whatever you want pierced.
yes once you're out on your own, you can do what you want.





but until then.. your parents are the ones providing for you. respect them and their opinions.
Yes, absolutely OK. That's what parents are for. If you still want it when you're financially independent, knock yourself out.
It's plenty fair. You live under her house, it's her rules. Wait a few years then get em done.
yes the child should wait untill there an adult then ...simple as that
Yes. That's why they are called parents. They are in charge.
you mean piercing.
