I think it looks cute, but I often wonder if that's something you should let your child decide if they want, or don't want themselves.
No big deal to me. I got mine pierced when I was just an infant. Legend goes that I had so little hair on my head that people thought I was a boy, so my mom got my ears pierced. They say I didn't scream until the second ear was done. I don't mind that I had it did, primarily because I don't remember. But if I had a daughter I'd pierce her ears. It's not gonna kill her. It didn't kill me. And besides, it looks so cute to me. Just like I was cute when I was a little one.
I knew a lady who'd make little bows and stick them onto her baby daughter's (bald) head because everyone thought she was a boy!
Personally I think it's not my place to pierce a child's ear - I think it's their decision, one that they should make in their teens.
Thank goodness I've got boys!
my parents pierced me when i was a baby and i was glad they did it.
it saved me the pain because i can't remember it LOL
and if i don't want my ears pierced later on, i can just not wear earrings adn the hole will closed up in time
