I pierced my belly button a few days ago and my parents don't know about it. I made sure the piercer sanitized everything and she seemed to know what she was doing, and I take care of the piercing. But anyways, my mom is pretty strict, she treats me like a 13 year old sometimes (i'm 16). She didn't even want me to pierce my ears a second time, and she finally let in 2 christmases ago, yet never took me to get them pierced. At first, I didn't care if she got mad about my belly button, she's too strict and didn't like my boyfriend (we had major probs because of that) and yea. We had talked about piercings and she said that she would be mad, but mostly hurt if I came home one day with my belly button pierced. I'm now in Taiwan and I won't see her for another month. I don't want to hurt her feelings TOO much since she's starting to be nicer to me, so should I write her an email or something telling her about it? Or pretend to ask and give good reasons until she says yes? asdf?!

it's your body, not hers.
it'll suck for you if you leave it in and get pregnant; the hole will expand. it's almost impossible to have a talk with asian parents and get your point across to them, but they just have to learn to accept that it's your body and your own life and not theirs, which will probably never happen, but hey you're turning 18 in only 2 years, right? close minded asian parents suck. |

I would try to call her on the phone if possible so it's the most direct form of communication for you. E-mail is a little more impersonal. While she might be unhappy about it at first, the time you're away will giver her a lot of time to think about it and by the time you're going to get back she'll be missing you much more than worrying about a belly piercing. Haha my mom wasn't too happy when I got my first eyebrow piercing, but she got used to it. When I got my 2nd, she just kinda shrugged it off lol.

 hi. call me linda. Group: Official Member Posts: 8,187 Joined: Feb 2004 Member No: 3,475 |
My mom is like that too. She refused to let me get my ears pierced for the second time, so the minute I moved out for college, I got it done. And she had to accept that because I wasn't living under their roof. And, I also recently got my belly pierced a couple of months ago. My mom still doesn't know, and my tactic is to just not tell her and hide it from her, so she doesn't find out.
But, if you really want to tell her, call her and let her know that you really wanted it, and already got it done. And, tell her that she should accept what you've done, since it is your body. |
