:mad: Why? Why do people have the need to pierce the ears of an infant? Why do this if they can't even afford pampers? Does that seem silly to you or am I being impractical?

    I pierced my daughters ears when she was about 9 months old.......purely as later she would be more concious of the fear that comes with body parts being pierced and hurt associated with it. I wouldn't do it if I couldn't afford nappies though.:smile:

    It might be the lack of a selfless lifestyle choice.
    Honestly, I don't think you are being impractical. I'm sure you could have wrote a novel on situations of why others make irresponsible decisions and their excuses on why they do it.
    I know I definitely could!!

    Just one of many examples of low priority.

    I was going to say maybe to show everyone that their bald baby is a girl, but I have seen plenty of baby boys with pierced ears now.

    On my daughters I waited until they asked. (which was btwn 7-9)
