To say no to my nearly 14yr old having her belly button pierced?

[mrsshears]

DD has said that she would like this done,besides the fact i think it looks awful,which really does not factor anymore as dd is getting older and lots of the things she likes make me go but i accept this as thats dd's choice as long as its not something completely inapropriate i wouldnt intervene.
However i just feel with this its just that bit too much,what do you think?

My parents let me have my belly button pierced at 16 as I wanted it done, and my Dad came with me. I would wait until your DD is 16 or older, it can be quite disgusting if it were to get infected etc. Luckily mine was fine and I did take proper care in cleaning it etc - so if she does get it done make sure she properly knows how to clean it or she will regret it! I do think 13/14 is a little too young though!
