Abuse Quote by Connor Sinnett
“Am I the only one that thinks it is wrong to let parents decide if their infant should get their ears pierced? I mean the infant can't speak can't say yes or no that doesn't mean you can for them and yes they won't remember the pain but they'll still feel it when it happens not you regardless, in my opinion it's abuse.”
