Sheila Says: Should You Pierce Your Baby’s Ears?

When it comes to parenting, there are so many issues that divide mothers – vaccinating, breastfeeding, disciplining, sleep training. But for some reason, the issue of infant ear piercing seems to get people even more riled up! The debate was re-ignited recently after Katie Price, an English TV host and model, posted a photo of her 17-month-old daughter on Instagram, showing the little girl’s pierced ears. The photo garnered thousands of likes, but just as many hateful comments. Some people even called Price a child abuser. The photo has helped start a petition  to ban infant ear piercings in the UK.
