June Challenge: 18. First Piercing

18. First Piercing
When I was a baby or a toddler, my Mum and Dad took me to get my first ever piercing in my ears. I know some people think this can be wrong because as a baby, you don't get a choice about whether or not you get your ears pierced but on the flip side of the argument, it's also better. It's better because although it hurts, you don't remember the pain. You don't understand at the time why it hurts, but you can be quite easily soothed and comforted as a child where you easily forget about the pain.
The amount of times I have seen young children take a tumble and fall and then just stand back up and again as if it didn't hurt, it shows how resilient and strong they are. When I had my second hole in my ears pierced, it hurt like hell so I'm kind of glad my Mum got my ears pierced as a child!
