OK may as well post it up here too.
My daughter has just turned 13 and really would like her belly button pierced.
I'm not so sure whether she is old enough. To be fair to her it's not a sheep thing. She's quite mature and single minded.
Something just doesn't sit right with me and I feel like she's too young.
Thoughts?

Will post my reply here too - It depends on the teen imo. Sinéad asked to have it done when she was 13. I let her only because she's the kind who is very exact in everything she does. If she were the flighty type who's forgetful, no way would I allow it as there's a good deal of after-care involved.
Edit to add wee PS - For the record, I wasn't thrilled about the idea at the time either. But I couldn't come up with a genuine reason why she shouldn't be allowed. She'd already sprouted mad and was as tall as me. She's always been a very responsible person so I couldn't blame the after care as being trouble. It's not illegal. Basically, she had me on every front apart from my own opinion that it didn't seem 'right'. Well, I decided it wasn't right for me to force my opinion on her either over something which is really pretty trivial in the grand scheme of things.

Tell her you'll think about it
When she's sixteen tell her that after considering all the options, to ask her mum.

Tell her she has to prove shes's serious about having it done. Tell her if she still wants it in a year she can have it.

This is tough one George.
My 14 year old Daugthers advice is:
"As long as she doesn't mind the pain and knows she has to keep it clean then you should let her go for it."
she then went on to say
"and as long as she isn't planning on getting a tattoo next, 'cos I'm telling you, that's what happens" - lol

Now THAT I would say no to, but it's illegal for them to tattoo anyone under 18 anyway.
