bellybutton piercing
I am only 14 and I want to go get my bellybutton pierced but my mom and dad said no because they said my body is still growing. i think it is because they are scared that i might want another one but i just want this one. I have even told them i would pay for every thing.
Do you think i am wrong or right and what should i do to convince them?

It might be that your parents are scared that you might want another one, but, it might not. It is very likely that they don't want you to get it because your body really isn't done growing. And, in most states, you can't even enter a piercing salon until your 16, even if your parents go with you. And that is very likely because of the reason that your parents stated of your body still growing.
Your telling them that you'll pay doesn't really have anythign to do with their complaint, so that probably won't help your case. But, what you could do is research how the pericing will affect your body, and help them to realize that you want the peircing for yourself, not because others' are doing it. Also, help them realize that you have absolutely no interest in any other body piercings.
What you should do, is search the internet, and any other sources you can find for information on peircing health, how to take care of body piercings, and what to do if your piercing gets infected.
Then try to find out about every piercer in yoru area. Find the best one based on cleanliness, professionalism, and quality of work. I have seen quite a lot of crooked piercings. It's not pretty. That's why you need to find the best piercer that you possibly can.
Then, you should find out exactly how much it will cost, how often you'll be cleaning it, how long it will take to heal, and let your parents know that you know the risks, but are willing to do everything you can to keep your navel ring discreet and healthy.
Basically just reasearch body piercings enough to become an expert and you can dispute every complaint they have about piercings. They aren't unproffessional, or just something to do to rebel...
good luck.
