Yes and the doctor is more than likely giving the baby a needle for its own good, ear piercing is not compulsory nor necessary.
I never said it was compulsary or necessary. I only said that I don't see a problem if it is performed on the baby by a professional and the parent/s make that legal decision. I brought the doctor's needle into the argument as a comparitive to the pain which the baby will receive, which would be minor.
