Lol, this is my amusing daughter's request...would you allow it? Her defense is so many of her friends have their tongue pierced.

No, I know what a tongue piercing is for. No way.

My daughter has been asking for the same thing...and a nose ring,and her eyebrow pierced. I wouldn't let mine get anything pierced but her ears.

tongue piercings seriously affect the speech,
enunciation of words goes out the window.
sounds like baby talk jibberish in the beginning.

Huh? She is just trying to follow her friends and she likes the look. Thats gross if you are implying what I think you are implying!

I didn't mean it like that. I meant I wouldn't let my child get that kind of piercing because of that. It's like with the skimpy clothes, just because one wears them doesn't mean that they're wearing to advertise, but that's what some people would think.

I wouldn't want anyone getting those kind of thoughts about my children, not even other children.

hi!!!!! dear, may i know what is the issues going on..

The tongue jewelry also chips teeth. Are you ready for dental bills?

I agree and some males automatically think sex when its just letting ur freak out!

my daughter is over age
so i dont have a say so

but yet she got it when
she was under age
and if i recall right
i went with her

she paid for
i didnt


she 29yrs old now
you figure she would had grown out
these fazes
but she keeps doing crazy things to her hair/or getting tatts
no more piercing though

she has 4kids and im pretty sure there thinking in there head moms
crazy.....lol

My Mom used to say..."If you're friends jump off a cliff....would you wanna follow them too??"

I would answer......Yes I would!!!!

Told my son, not while he lived under my roof & I was responsible for him. After he was in navy, got tounge, nipples & foreskin done. 2 years later all were out & he wondered "WHY he wasted the money??" Now I would say same thing as then & son has already told his son's; "NOT under his roof."

lol, I was always the first to jump off the cliff.

We are discussing tongue piercing in teenagers.

My son brought that issue up when he was in high school...

This is what I told him.....I dare you to get it done....you have to sleep and I will pull it out...

Told him till he was 18 and I had his Diploma in my hand. Then and only then he could pierce his tongue and get the tattoos he wanted. That is as long as he had a job to pay for it..

What happened was his cousin did pierce his. It got infected they thought he had TB at first due to loosing weight and some problems... Doctor made him take the piercing out of his tongue. He was on heavy antibiotics for awhile. Once that happened funny my son did not want to pierce his tongue...

Totage, thank you for clarifying your post. You are right and I never thought of that. I dont think teenage boys think like that, but who knows? A creepy male teacher has already stepped over the line with her, by flirting with her. She was shocked.

simple answer

hell to the no,,,,,,lol

actually, none of the above,lol

my mom let me when i was 14 and had it in for 5 years but removed it

Humm I have a niece that has her tongue pierced. Heck I did not know it for a long time cause she does not play with hers....Ohh and several others my kids were around none of them had any of those issues...

Well except when they first had it done and their tongue was swelled up like a balloon lmao ....

So I would say all of the above is false...
