“Causing unnecessary pain that isn't for medical reasons done by a fully qualified medical professional is child abuse in my eyes,” one person wrote angrily about the new piercings. “The risks are unreal and that throbbing pain in her ears no matter how happy and looked after your child is just isn't justified in my eyes."

“Was she able to ask you to have them pierced? Was she able to agree to have them pierced? Did she sit there with a smile on her face whilst a gun with a needle was placed on her ear? Did she say politely after thank you?” one person wrote, sarcastically. “Or did she sit and cry and scream looking to you for comfort and to make it all better? And tell me how did it make you feel sitting there and watching her have pain inflicted on her unnecessarily?”
