okay, so i am the kind of person who is attracted to piercings and tatoos. my parents are COMPLETELY against it, and they don't support the fact that i am...not like them. I'm a complete rebel, and i do risky things because they're fun, but my mom and dad won't let me get my nose, belly button or ears pierced. They think it's disgusting, and i think it's freaking awesome. They won't let me do anything. It's my body, it's my life, and i have to deal with it, right? Well I guess they have to too if i'm living with them, but still. I really like tattoos too. I want like...4 or 5 tattoos, and they totally lectured me. Let's not forget about my hair! I desire black and fushia hair, but i would like it to be straight. I told them that i would raise the money myself, but they just won't let me do it! I know they want what's best for me, but I really, really, really, want this. How can I get them to accept that part of me, and how do i get them to let me do it? thankss. x3
You could ask them to let you start off with a piercing somewhere they wouldn't see it, for instance your belly button. Or you could ask them to let you get a small tattoo done that could be covered over, on your hip or ankle.
My daughter went ahead and had her tongue pierced and it was about two months later that she finally told me about it - I hadn't even noticed. I don't condone going against parents wishes but sometimes the rebelious nature does get it's own way.
