Hep C Forum

Hep C ForumTypical: I want a lip piercing, my parents do not.?

Now I know what you will say:
"You think it'll make you unique, but it will not!"
"Lip piercings are ugly."
"Have fun you get hepatitis C!

But seriously people, if this was supposed to be a forum to respond with humor, we'd all be on 4chan. I'm 16, I want to get Spiderbite (two lip piercings on the other side of the lower lip side.)

My parents think it's a bad idea, and I'll regret, and I might as well make a big tattoo of a sheep on the back. I understand there are risks, and I know that many other people have piercings too. I do not particularly mind if I fall into a sort of "trend", or if someone else has the exact piercings I have. I get it: There is a possible risk of infection, you can not handle this pain, etcetc.

I got my ears pierced back in the day. Since then they have been infected (nickel allergy) and I had some surgery on that too. They also think that if I can not manage to get my ears pierced again, I could not handle the pain "hard core" of another piercing face. Although I am not legally responsible for my own body, I think the choice not to further traumatize my ears and instead move to more "hardcore" The decision is not a stupid piercings.

What I seek is some kind of word that gives convincingly explain why my idea for parents to pierce their lips is not an amazingly awful.

Well it seems that there is more evidence against you than for you.
-Do your research. The facts can not be argued with.
-Do it in an APA certified piercer. ( http://www.safepiercing.org/)
"You know better than to use this time nickel
"You'll take care of it (right?)
-You will not be a baby Whiney the pain because you're a big boy now (Right ?!?!)
"It is just a piece of jewelry, decorations for your body.
"It is not permanent, unlike a tattoo.
"You are an adult responsible for young and generally make the right decisions about your body (you'll have to prove to some extent)
"It'll increase your confidence, help you make better decisions.

DO NOT:
-Do it yourself
-Make it illegal
"Tell your parents that" your "body. Because until you turn 18 - it is theirs.
-Push. If they say no, let him go. Once they have things to think, they will certainly consider it. Give them your information, then give them time. If you come back later, it's better than two of you to dig in their heels in an argument that has never had to happen.

BTW, Spiderbite are totally hot. Do not give it up. Calm, patient, persistent going to win. Good luck! :)

It is your body and your choice, then you will not regret it one day, they can tell you: "I told you so" My parents always told me no more and more thinking it would just m "go, but I am so upset that I did it myself. which wasn't the smartest choice, but I never got infected and he and my mother wished she had taken me to myself after making his way to express myself.
hope this helped. its hard to explain.

1. It makes you feel more comfortable than you, prettier or whatever you want to put it.

2. Many facial piercings, lip piercings in particular, are virtually painless for most people. Body jewelry is nickel free, so there are no worries about it.

3. lip piercings are hard to get infected because your mouth has enzymes naturally keep it clean.

4. If in fact you do want.
