Who's the boss? (IE: rude teenager and body mod)

[artwhoreforhire]

Let's say, for the sake of argument, you have a 16 year old daughter. She wants her navel pierced, and has been begging for awhile. You relent, and take her to a piercing parlor (professional, at a tattoo/piercing shop). When you get there, your teen is surly, rude to you in the waiting room, and when her name is called, she snaps at you. After

B, of course. I hope you didn't encounter someone who did C D:
I would also tell her that I'm not taking her to get it pierced again. She can wait 2 years if she's gonna act like an asshole.

I have, multiple times. I even had one women scream at me to "just sell her the f"cking jewelry and she's pierce it herself". (I didn't)

B for sure. WTF kind of brat did I raise if this comes up at all? I'm kind of hoping public tantrums will stop when she grows out of toddlerhood, ffs.

B but as she is 16 she doesnt need me there to get it done

[artwhoreforhire]

Depends on the state, I work in MN, and here you can't get it done till 15, then you need parental consent until 18.

[unbreakablelife]

I dont live in any state, I'm in England

[alirose]

B. She can pay for her own in two years. Maybe by then she will learn to quit acting like a spoiled bitch because I certainly didn't raise her ass that way.
