I vaguely remember crying this much when I first had my ears pierced, I’ve toughened up a bit in the ten years since then though.
Humour aside if it were my kid (or if I were the piercer for that matter) I really would have to search myself very hard for any reason why it would be necessary or fair to pierce someone so young, someone that still isn’t able to control bodily functions most adults take for granted, let alone decide if it’s what they want. It certainly can’t be so they’re popular at nursery school, or because “all the other babies are doing it”.
Granted the physical trauma is minimal but I just don’t believe a baby belongs in a piercing environment, at all..
No offence to the mother (I’m assuming she’s the mother) in the photo but seeing my child in obvious distress, whether it be through physical pain, emotional stress or otherwise, would definitely lead me to reassess any decision that caused that distress, for a decade or so anyway.
I’m sure posting this will restart the “should kids be pierced” debate, so click the previous links then come back here if you feel like taking part or shouting at each other. Just don’t take the last two seriously..

There’s nothing wrong with piercing a kid’s ears when they’re babies
I’m glad my mom did it to me… I had nicely healed holes while everyone was getting gunned at claire’s in 2nd grade
I think if you’re gonna do it to your baby though you should do it at the doctors
that’s where my parents brought me when I was 1 years old

I have since stretched my ears to bout 2 inches.

My mother had my ears pierced when I was still a baby. I appreciate it so much. I hate having needles through me now and there are so many piercings I would like to have but I’m too scared of the pain. It took me months to be brave enough to get my smiley, and a couple years after that to get my christina. Because of this, I feel lucky my mum had it done to me when I was still a baby. That way she looked after them while they healed (instead of me. God, talking on the phone or brushing your hair and accidentally hitting your ear after you’ve just got an earring…. OUCH) and I don’t remember it and now I have them to stay. Also, they’ve been there so long that no matter how long I leave earrings out, the holes are still there, unlike my christina which I got a couple years ago but if I go a few days without my bar in, it hurts like hell to put it back.
