I've had my septum pierced for a year now. My mother doesn't aprove so she won't come near me. She tells me to permanently take it out but for me that's not an option. I use my piercings as a way of self expression and a mood booster because I have very low self esteem. I get lots of encouraging comments from strangers that say they love it and that it souits me. I love it! My mother goes out of her way to tell family members to convince me of taking it out. She tells me that people knowing I have it makes HER embarrassed. We haven't spoken in three months. I'm living on my own I have a full time job a family of my own and I'm 21. I just want her to accept me for the way I want to be. Of this keeps up I don't think I'll let her see my newborn in the hospital. I really want her to be there. The thing that makes me HAPPY is What she hates. I just want to be me for once in my life. What do I do???????
