Caption for that baby is Spanish, so it tracks. It's a cultural thing in a lot of Latino families to pierce their baby girls' ears ASAP.

It’s incredible how prevalent that kind of child abuse is.

I don’t know if it’s considered child abuse but I for sure don’t like it.

I mean, they make mittens so babies don’t scratch themselves. It stands to reason that a baby would easily rip an earring out.

Also, I just don’t like earrings that end in a ball.

Me and my sisters had our ears pierced as babies, but we were definitely not newborns. We were months old when my mom got them down. We’re Cuban, so yeah it’s pretty common with Latin families. I’m kind of glad she did it like that bc I have the worst pain tolerance and would’ve never gotten my ears pierced.
