Message: <blockquote data-quote="Kemrain" data-source="post: 2072556" data-attributes="member: 12153">A friend of mine who has two young girls and was recently divorced told me a story.  His ex-wife had a tongue piercing, and it hadn't been a problem.  What was a problem was that one of his daughters wanted to be more like mommy.  His girls are around 3 and 5 or so. The 5 year old went to sleep with a metal object (something small and round that could be screwed onto a bar, I have no idea what it really was) in her mouth, and if my friend hadn't chosen that moment to check in on his little girl, he might not have noticed her choking. It was lodged deep in her throat, and he nearly hurt her getting it out. She cried and cried, and when he asked her why, she told him it was to be more like mommy. It didn't help his failing relationship too much.Now, he told me this story to make me like his ex-wife less, but, it's made me leery of tongue piercings in general.  I can't see one without thinking about a 5 year old choking to death.  Just thought I'd share the mental anguish.ASH, I'm glad your husband is so concerned for your chi. What a good man to be looking out for you so.Whatever you decide to do, I hope you're made happy.- Kemrain the Leery.</blockquote>
