Re: Earrings on small children

Why am I not surprised that you are not able to discern the difference between having ears pierced and dressing up in church appropriate clothes?

Why am I not surprised that you didn't read my reasoning for it?
They're just different aspects of what a parent thinks is appropriate for their child to wear. Some parents think it's appropriate for a young girl to have earrings, some don't. Some think that a young child should dress up for school, some don't. I don't see how it's that hard to understand.
It's not like they're tattooing their children. A pierced ear can easily close up if the child decides that they don't want it when they're old enough to make that decision. Until then, it's up to the parents.
