Would you allow your 15 year old to get a nose piercing?

My daughter baited me right into it. I wanted to make her happy because she suffers from anxiety but now I'm having second thoughts.

I have loads of piercings, yet no I wouldn't let them. I wouldn't stand in their way, just wouldn't sign anything to say they can, mainly because they are still growing and because it's possible to get bumps on the piercing and it needs a lot of aftercare. Or just not to be played with

@thenightwatchman yes that is why I am having second thoughts because of the issues that can come up

@Summerbreeze45 I mean they aren't major issues if you are sensible with keeping it clean. And make sure you go to a professional piercer. I'm a little split between whether I would or wouldn't let them myself. And you should see my nose!

@Summerbreeze45 I'm going to say you should let her, because oppressing individual choices is just wrong. Just saying I don't think any piercing should be taken too lightly or a decision to rush into
