la petite moi

Charlatan, ear piercings generally aren't reversable. By the time they are of the age to make the decision to take the piercings out, there is scar tissue. I know this because I got my ears pierced when I was in fourth grade, wore the earrings for a couple years, and then tried to let them heal...but there were large scar lumps instead.

In response to the question, I don't think it's child abuse. I think child abuse is when you're maliciously trying to harm a child either to get a point across or not. However, I do think piercing a child's ears is stupid.
