Bard, Meghan. "Piercings Are Popular Among Teens." Body Piercing and Tattoos, edited by Sharon Bahadosingh, Greenhaven Press, 2007. At Issue. Gale In Context: Opposing Viewpoints, https://link.gale.com/apps/doc/EJ3010480210/OVIC?u=ggcl&sid=OVIC&xid=53b75c2c. Accessed 12 Mar. 2020. Originally published as "Despite Parents' Concern, Body Piercings Stay Popular Among Teens," Sentinel and Enterprise, 28 Aug. 2005.
   Parents are now more accepting of their teenagers getting piercings and tattoos. Most teens want pieircings and will most likely get them even if they don’t have approval. They see older people on social media and become influenced but luckily Piercings are less permanent and can be taken out unlike tattoos. There was one life threatening incident when a 13 year old girl decided to pierce her own navel. Her mother didn’t take her to get proper care and she ended up being in the hospital for life threating infection. It is important to go to a professional piercer they have all the knowledge and will verbally teach you about the after care for home.

While some historians state that running was the first sport, It actually wasn't put in the category of sports until 776 BCE.
