Yes there's something wrong with that. Its your daughter's decision not yours.
-
In most Roman Catholic countries little girls get their ears pierced just a few days after they are born.
-
Nothing says "I'm a tramp" like having a two-month old baby with pierced ears.
-
What is wrong with it is that she is not choosing it herself. When she is older she might want her ears unpierced. But hey, there is no way back because mummy had put holes through them only a few months after birth!
-
why do want them pierced?
-
nope nothing wrong. lots of people do it young so they will never remember the pain. same as circumsism for boys
-
I think it's a little young. I would wait a couple of years but whatever floats your boat.
-
I dunno. Seems kinda absurd to me. But, of course, this is strictly just my opinion, for whatever it might be worth. Again, no moral judgement implied whatsoever; just my solicited opinion. +5 for the interesting question. ;-)

I don't know but I think that it is terrible to make body altering, decisions, for somebody elses body, unless it is a life or death matter, even if that some one else is your kid. I think it is better to wait until that person is old enough, to decide for them self, if that is what they want.
-
Half the kids in my nieces' pre-school class and a dozen friends' kids have piercings. I live in a major city. Its fairly common at such an age.
-
I think body modification should only be done on themselves by responsible adults. I think the decision to have pierced ears should be hers when she reaches an age at which she can make an informed decision.
-
Personally... I think it is awful to get a baby's ears pierced. Whether it is actually wrong, that is a different matter. I guess it is a judgement call. However, be prepared for a whole lot of people out there to judge you as a parent for doing it, because they will.
-
I think you should wait until she is old enough to decide for herself, and there is also the risk that you will give off certain signals to people who don't know you, as it looks a bit tacky and chavvy, a bit Vicky Pollard (you may not know who that is, but trust me, not a good thing).
-
Do it now, she won't know whats going on....Listen make sure you pick 14k gold earrings and have them shot them with the gun...Give your daughter tylenol right after that and rotate the earrings three times a day with bacatracin antiboitic...She will be fine..
-
Who are you doing it for? her or you. I agree that those decisions should be made by the person owning the ears. The same goes for circumcision. If it is not a necessity or for religious reasons, leave well alone.
-
I pierced my daughter's ears all at the age of 1 yr old. It heals faster and tehy look pretty with nice little studs.
-
Frankly, I don't think you have the right to do cosmetic alterations to another person's body. I realize this is relatively normal in our culture, but think about it for a second: you are talking about forcibly piercing another person's skin with a needle (whether it's in a gun or by hand), purely for your own enjoyment, without asking their permission. Does that sound right to you? However, I'm sure you could find someone who would do it. But then, you could also probably find someone to kill your daughter for you, so what does that say? You'll have a cleaner piercing, with less scar tissue development and a lower chance of infection, if you get her ears pierced by hand instead of a gun. But, because people who pierce by hand tend to take their work and art seriously, you'll likely run a higher chance of hearing them say "no way!"
-
of course there is. let her grow up and make her own choice. basically you want to shove metal into your baby...thats worrying.
-
The only thing actually wrong would be the increased risk of her earring catching on something so she rips her earlobe.
-
To me, unconsensual body modification is abuse. As simple as that.
-
With infection being a possibility and the fact she may come to resent you for NOT allowing HER to make that decision, I know I wouldn't do it!
-
I think ears should be pierced only when someone asked to have it done....or is old enough to go and have it done themselves.
-
They chopped the top of my dick off when I was a baby and it doesn't bother me at all. Besides, baby girls with pierced ears are to cute to believe.
-
Your child isn't a doll lol. Like the majority of the other answers said, when she is old enough and actually is able to decide on her own if she wants it, she can do it then.
-
I used to do piercings for baby and they had to be six months. They turn red and cry with the shock of it, but they calm down in about 30 seconds. Get it done professinally.
-
the biggest wrong in your question is that you seem to look at your kid as a toy or something. If SHE wants to get her ears pierced you can do it. If she doesn´t want than just stay the hell away from her ears!
-
Please just wait and let her make her own decision. For at least 6 years you already get to decide what she is going to wear. I hate to say it but where I come from kids with their ears pierced are considered to be trashy, let alone their parents. When we see a baby with pierced ears we just roll our eyes, thinking the parents are no good at all. I, however, cannot judge from your question what you are totally like, all I can say is, just do not do it. Why would you force your kid to have pierced ears because you like it. You are the boss anyway, try not to overdo it. In some way she is your property but she should not be treated like an object.
