Peer pressure definitely a bitch, there is really no way to avoid it. But here is the thing, lets say you had a 12 year old girl, all her friends have belly piercing, dress way to slutty etc etc one day she gets home and tells you she wants a belly piercing. Im sure I would of said no and made sure she didnt get one period.
Now this neighbors daughter isnt hiding the fact she has a belly piercing and that she wears clothes that I wouldnt let my daughter wear at that age, so her parents are aware of it and have to be somewhat ok with it, which I guess bothers me a bit.
Then again its their kid and I wont tell them how to raise her, specially since I dont have kids. Its just something it got me thinking.
