Heated responses are given in chat forums, blogs, and real-life over this issue. When baby and ear piercing are in the same sentence or room, people get opinionated quickly. So what’s the big deal? Why do people care so much about this one, minuscule topic? It’s all about beliefs. Some believe this is an issue of body autonomy and little girls have the right to choose when, and if, they want their ears pierced. Others see ear piercings as a rite of passage to be celebrated, equivalent to getting the first tooth or walking.
Anti-baby piercers believe no responsible parent should ever want their child to be in pain. It is hard enough to watch the baby crying squirm when it has vaccinations. Making a child suffer in the name of fashion is cruel.
However, some argue that the pain suffered by a properly done ear piercing to the ear lobe is often less than that caused by a vaccination (or cutting their nails). The pain it inflicts is minimal and doesn't cause any unnecessary or cruel suffering. Any discomfort will be quickly forgotten by a baby once the piercings heal. Older children will be much more likely to remember any pain associated with piercing and may be more traumatized later in life.
In conclusion, whether or not to piece your baby’s ears is a personal decision, one that may be deeply rooted in cultural norms and personal preferences or beliefs.
What is the best summary for the text above?
Any piercing carries the risk of infection, and this is particularly dangerous for babies. Surely a pair of earrings is not worth the risk of a child being hospitalized.
Piercing baby’s ears is irresponsible act of parents since it can cause pain that is unnecessarily felt by the baby. Nevertheless, piercing ears when the baby gets older causes traumatized memory.
Aside from the fact that it is a safe and minor procedure, the effects of the piercing are reversible. If the child grows up and decides that they do not like having pierced ears they can simply wait for the pierce hole to close naturally, which happens when it is left alone for several weeks.
The pain of the vaccination serves to protect the child. Pierced ears do not protect the child from anything and are in no way necessary.
Compared to vaccination, the pain inflicted by piercing baby’s ear is less painful. Thus, the baby won’t have any traumatized memory on it.
