Piercing debate high-lights emotional and physical scars
DEAR ABBY: I just finished reading the letter
from “Upset in Collegeville, Pa.,”
regarding the 15-year-old girl who
wanted to get her belly button pierced.
Your response included, “As long as
the procedure is done hygienically, it
shouldn't cause any damage.”
I am a gynecologist. I have
observed that navel piercings often
cause significant permanent scarring,
especially at the upper piercing site.
These scars are far larger than one
would expect. They can also be associated with
darkening of the skin at the scar site, which
makes them even more cosmetically unaccept
able. I can’t explain why other piercings such
as earlobes usually have no scarring while
navel piercings often result in unsightly perma
nent scars. Anyone considering a belly button
piercing should be aware of this potentially per
manent problem.
OREGON GYNECOLOGIST
DEAR OREGON GYNECOLOGIST:
Thank you for writing. Although I live in Los
Angeles, probably the navel-piercing capital of
the United States, I cannot claim to have seen
as many belly buttons “up close and personal”
as you have, so I bow to your expertise. Many
readers commented regarding that letter. Read
on:
DEAR ABBY: May I add a note to your
response to the parents who agreed to let their
daughter pierce her belly button, then changed
their minds? I am 62 and still can't quite for
give my father for much the same thing. He
was old-fashioned and wouldn't let my older
sister drive. When I was 15, I begged to take
driver’s ed and get my license at 16. He agreed
on the condition that I pay for the lessons
myself.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY
(April 29). Relationships
make you feel like a million
bucks you are widely
respected and dearly loved.
Romance heats up in May. but
you want to play the field
through the summer. Choices
are numerous. New work in
June gives you a chance to do
what you’re best at. Consider
going into business for your
self this winter. Love signs are
Aquarius and Pisces. Your
lucky numbers are: 4,1, 48. 6
and 35.
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
As tasks switch hands and
people take over for one
another, you may feel like
you're in a relay race of sorts.
A phone call tells you what
you’ve wanted to hear
though the one calling may not
be who you’d like to hear
from.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
You’re confident enough to
remain open and vulnerable to
another human being, which is
what makes you so attractive.
Sure, you’ll get hurt once in a
while, but the love you'll be
able to take in will be so worth

Well, I did and passed with flying colors.
| Jeanne Phillips
MARJ G., WESLACO, TEXAS
DEAR MARJ: I agree. She fulfilled her part
of the bargain, so the parents shouldn’t have
reneged on their promise.
DEAR ABBY: In some states, piercing isn’t
legal before age 16, even with parental consent.
If the parents relent, I hope they’ll find out what
the local laws are and go to the most reputable
person who performs piercings. My advice to
potential piercers: Stay away from those who
will do the piercing regardless of state law.
SUZANNE, MONROE, WASH.
DEAR SUZANNE: Good advice.
DEAR ABBY: While I respect the right to
change one’s mind, the relationship of a parent
to a child can be permanently damaged by rela
tively small betrayals. In today’s world, belly
button piercing is little more than a fashion
statement, and the parents who are waffling
over their promise to let their daughter pierce
her navel in exchange for good grades risk far
more by breaking their promise than by allow
ing the piercing.
GEORGE (A YOUNG PARENT WITH
CHILDREN), SANTA MONICA, CALIF.
DEAR GEORGE: I agree. And you stated it
very well.
Under the stars' gaze
it.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You can't make someone fall
in love with you, but you can
make sure that the object of
your affection sees you in the
best possible light. One-on
one time is essential to build
ing this relationship properly.
Ask for one date at a time.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
You’re in a playful mood and
will take steps that keep you
from getting too serious, espe
cially in relationships. You
need to stretch out. be free,
and keep your options open.
Perhaps you should keep your
thought process private.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). A
parting of ways is being con
sidered, but that doesn't have
to be such a heavy issue.
Think of yourself as a light
spirit, connecting and letting
go with ease. Art and com
merce blend together beauti
fully for you!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Your financial realm is infused
with luck, but you have to start
the cycle with a very responsi
ble or very generous move.
Someone is asking you to pay
up do it as completely and
as early as possible.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
You can work on your self
esteem from the inside out
(with prayer or meditation) or
the outside in (a hair cut or
better posture). Even though
you prefer to work with a part
ner, what you do on your own
is truly inspired.
But when I turned 16, he refused to
allow me to get my license. When I
asked why he’d lied to me, he said
he hadn’t lied. He simply thought
I’d never be able to save enough to
pay for the course. Even after 46
years, I still think he lied to me.
My advice to the parents: Do
not break your word. It could dam
age your relationship with your son
or daughter forever.
SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov. 21).
This is a day to cooperate
but with whom? Mutually
beneficial situations are all
around you. Spend time in
conversation, not only with
people you like and are like,
but with people you don’t
know.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21). Be friendly, as
usual. Business mixers bring
lucrative prospects your way.
If you don’t think a certain
individual knows your secret,
you are wrong! You’re an
open book now, and your
body language tells all.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-
Jan. 19). A cautious
approach in business may be
appropriate, but unbridled
enthusiasm gets you further
along. Tonight, you feel pas
sionate and flamboyant,
tempted to drop your usual
cool cover and laugh out
loud!
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). You'll have a creative
breakthrough when you fig
ure out exactly what your
market is and why you’re the
only one qualified to do what
you’ve set out to do.
Someone near needs more
tenderness from you.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). Never take it personally
if someone just doesn't get
you. Move on. You’ve got
scores of admirers when
you’re in the right environ
ment. Taurus and Virgo figure
into your best plan. Lunches
and interviews are lucky.
