Make it law that it's a criminal offence for piercing a baby/child's ears
It should be classed as abuse to pierce a child's ears under an age where thwy can consent or ask for it to be done. It should also be an criminal offence for any business to pierce their ears.
The unnecessary pain caused on a baby / child through ear piercing is horrendous. It's should carry a sentence for piercing a child's ears and a sentence for a parent piercing there child's ears. There should be a minimum age of around 10 years old by that age the child knows thwy want thwm doing

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We're not sure what age you'd like children to be able to consent to having their ears pierced.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
