15 Parents Shared Why They Will Never Pierce Their Babies’ Ears

Some parents pierce their baby’s ears because they believe it takes much longer to heal as they get older. Others, on the contrary, are convinced you have to respect your child’s privacy at any age, and piercing their ears without their consent is unethical. While tiny earrings may look cute, they aren’t safe for the baby, and they can cause them to hurt themselves during play or can even choke on them.

Here at Bright Side, we gathered opinions shared by people who feel very strongly about piercing a baby’s ears.
