As Angelina takes Zahara, six, and Shiloh, five, to get their ears pierced - how young is too young?

    Too young? Angelina Jolie has sparked a debate among mothers after allowing daughters Zahara, six, and Shiloh, five, to get their ears pierced

    Most mothers with young daughters will be familiar with the demand for pierced ears.

    And no doubt Angelina Jolie is too, after it was reported last week that she took daughters Zahara, six, and Shiloh, five, to a London salon to get the treatment done.

    Zahara, who went first, is said to have screamed with pain, prompting Shiloh to opt out at the last minute.

    But the star's decision has sparked a debate about the right age to allow a girl to get their ears pierced.

    Several mothers have taken to social networking sites to cast their own verdict on the issue, stating that Zahara and Shiloh are too young.

    They say the actress, 36, should have waited until the girls were at least ten. Others believe a child should be in her teens before she is allowed to wear earrings.

    But given that many others, for cultural, practical, and aesthetic reasons, choose to pierce daughters' ears soon after birth, their comments have not been well-received.
