okay so I'm having issues on this and my damn parents. (sorry for my language but i will try to stay away from the curse words, uber pissed at my dad and kinda need to vent.)

Okay, well like my mom (my parents are divorced. I dont live with my mom but they have something with the court where they both have custidoy of us still.)

But okay, my mom don't care that i want to gage them to a size 2 ( not very big about the size of a eraser on a pencil.) and yeah she bought me the tappers and the damn ear rings for it and well today around 6:30 est. i put them in and then like 30mins later, i go down to get some damn kool-aid and my dad walks he in, hes like why did you do that your ear. I say "because I want too." My father gos " well you need to get that out of your ear before I rip it out for you!" I go "mom said I can" He gos "I dont care to what she says, when your 18 and dont live under my house and you want to damage your body fine." I go " your stupid you know that and i hope you know its not going to close now ( even thought that a lie it will close back after so long)" then i walk off wile he still yelling i really wasnt paying attenton to him and all i here really loud as im in the upstaris bathroom was him saying " you better be taking the damn Fbomb thing out of you god damn Fbomb ear!" by that time it was done out of my ear I said "fbomb off" and walked in my room and been sitting here thinking about this the hole time.



So let me know what you think i should do about this, and if i should be allowed to have gages and ECT....


Thanks.

Note:sorry for my spelling and everything im just like angery and like super like shacky cuz im so mad.

If you live with your dad, you go by his rules.
Sorry, but that is just how it is.
Except he lives with both his parents at different times, and his mom said it was fine.

You can always just stop visiting your dad if he's going to be a jerk to you.

had the same problem with my dad man....well ill let u in on a little secrete...if ur 16 or older and u already had ur ears pireced...u dont need permission to get them gauged.....so he really cant do anything (unless he actually rips them out) but if u arent 16 or older...then u need to really play on the whole "mom said i could" thing...thats really all u can do....if it gets really heated u can take it to court....but i doubt u want to make that much trouble...but technically since ur mom said it was ok your fine....

Hey, if your dad ripped the rings from your ears, he can go to jail and you can have his house. But yeah, when you get 18, just focus on your carer, own your own business with good ideas. And possibly, you will become rich! You can leave him for good!

I don't understand why would your dad would say such things? It depends, if you take care of your ears and don't get ear infection, to prevent this, just apply alcohol ever morning and night on your ears everyday until they don't get sore anymore. But your dad acts like earrings would automatically damage anyone's body.

I have gold earrings with diamonds in them, right now I have studs, this summer, I will get hoops. But don't worry, most of us don't like our parent's rules until we leave the house. Like me for example, I dislike everyone in my family, they always argue against each other with poor opinions. When I get rich with my carer, I'm moving to the U.K. and they can all forget about me. I don't even want to tell them my true religion. I am agnostic, but when they find out the truth about that, they will say, "I not never getting you anything again, you worship the devil, you are going to burn in Hell when you die," and blah, blah, blah. I know how my family are. I don't live with my dad, but I could careless if my dad die on the street.

Hehehe. Well, you don't NEED both parent's permission to have your ears pierced. Just one. However it'd be prudent to go along with what your father says since you live with him. That's just how life is. In the mean time, you need to get your mom involved into the discussion, and do so peacefully and diplomatically. Talk to both of them, hear out your father's concerns about the ear gauges and then calmly state your reasons for wanting it. It is YOUR body after all, and parents have no right to dictate what you do with it UNLESS it involves your well being and health. (Then sadly, they have full control, and nothing you can do about that)

But do take time to cool off, and talk to them both together calmly about it. Tell them how much it means to you to have it. Chances are they'll bend a little and let you have them if they're conviced it's harmless and you want it.

I understand your father may be acting a little old fashioned by objecting to ear ornamentation, but you can lay it out to him plainly, with research from the internet, that men nowadays do indeed wear moderate to small earrings of certain styles. Among latino and african-american males this is most common from my observation. (I'm no expert but eh, at least I pay attention)

I'm 20, almost 21 years old, and I've considered getting an earring myself, but held off simply because of my father's concerns. He made some good points to me about having to keep up with my earring and all. Since I'm kinda forgetful, I decided against it. (Glad I did, I lost my class ring shortly after that occurred)

But you know, It really isn't bad. Yes, I know...it's not appropriate for most men to wear such jewelry in formal situations, wearing a stud or placeholder would be easily spotted by people.

If you do get the green light, be prepared to have some older folks look down on you a bit more. Some people are old-fashioned to a fault, and there are rare cases where such jewellry will cost you a job. So your father isnt 100% wrong in being against it, but he really isnt 100% right. x3

I 100% disagree on that, especially the ancient days when the Pharaoh Egyptians wore jewelery.

Jesus Christ that is the worst defense for gauges I've EVER heard. Did you know they also enslaved people and killed them for fun? Because the ancient Egyptian Pharaohs did that, it's ok to do that now, right?

Seriously. There's no point in gauges, they're ugly, and there is NO undoing it. Your ear will forever be scarred by it.

lol, it is your opinion. Earrings are popular in my location though. But to me it is like saying, "ahh, there is no point of wearing Air Force, they ugly." And I love Nike Air Forces and there popular in my location.

I am curious, what are ear gauges? Are there the same as studs?

So that's what it is. I had my ears pierced though a machine. But the natural and original way is a professional that does the needling, no that scars me.

I got mine done from the mall from a professional, she was South East Asian! The pain level of my ears was 2/10, I didn't really felt anything either. This happen in June last year when I was sixteen. Did you know the younger you are, the less it will hurt? Once you get very older, your nerve cells will expand more to your ears, which will cause pain if you do it that time, probably age 40+.

I will turn 18 in September 29. I will find out what games are coming around that time.

But okay, my mom don't care that i want to gage them to a size 2 ( not very big about the size of a eraser on a pencil.) and yeah she bought me the tappers and the damn ear rings for it and well today around 6:30 est. i put them in and then like 30mins later, i go down to get some damn kool-aid and my dad walks he in, hes like why did you do that your ear. I say "because I want too." My father gos " well you need to get that out of your ear before I rip it out for you!"

So let me know what you think i should do about this, and if i should be allowed to have gages and ECT....


Thanks.

Okay first of all, you should listen to your dad (no matter how stupid it is). It's his house, his rules. Oh, and cussing in his face isn't going to do **** in this situation; you're just making it worst for yourself.
If you live with your dad, you go by his rules.
Sorry, but that is just how it is.
Exactly.
Gauges are ugly and I think you should listen to your dad :)
Agreed.
see im 16 and im about to be 17 in june...... its like wtf
When you're eighteen you can do what you want. In the mean time, listen to your dad.

Lol at this post. First of all, even if your dad ripped out your earings (...), he'll go to jail, but you won't get his house; You'll just leave with your mom in the mean time.

No. I can tell that his dad want the earings out because their not only ugly, but stupid.

"When I get rich with my career, I'm moving to the U.K." Okay there mister. Come back to me in ten years and tell me if your rich or not.

... I think you'll care if your dad dies on the street
I 100% disagree on that, especially the ancient days when the Pharaoh Egyptians wore jewelery.

The little ones are ok; but the the huge noticeable ones are horrid in my opinion. :\
I plan in the small ones :D size to or a zero, i rather have a 2 but, and size 2s are an eraser on a pencil not any bigger then that. But if your talking like 2 1/2 in yeah thats ugly.
