As for her doing it, I see no difference in her doing that versus all the parents who pierce a baby's ears. Both are completely for vanity/to look good, yet the latter is seen as perfectly okay.

Plucking is a continuous, often painful thing that says to a child, "there is something wrong with you and it has to be fixed or else you won't be as pretty as the other children." It promotes vanity and can cause self esteem issues for a young child that shouldn't be worried about those types of things yet. Piercing is a one time thing so you can wear earrings.

And a female really doesn't 'need' to wear earrings either, so for a parent to pierce their daughter's ears, it's also saying that 'there is something wrong with you....' just as much as plucking is. Babies/toddlers aren't asking their parents to get their ears pierced, so it's completely the parent thinking it should be done.And just because it's one time doesn't make any less for vanity/to make the girl look better.
