First Ear Piercing Experience for Tiger and Cow | Wilder Family Vlog

Tiger and Cow get their ears pierced for the first time! In this family vlog, we sit down with the girls, discussing what to expect and addressing any fears they might have about the ear-piercing process. Venture with us to the piercing studio, where amidst some understandable fear and doubt, our brave girls step up and get their ears pierced. Stick around until the end, as Tiger and Cow share their honest opinions about the experience. This is a big step for our girls, and we’re thrilled to share it with our Wilder family online!

The piercing guy was so kind. “I’ll still be here tomorrow, I’ll still be here next week.” He was great.

[@carolynadams4669]

So sweet how Dad said "I can understand that I don't understand." I wish more people felt that way. That's real empathy. What a beautiful family moment.❤

[@emersonansley]

What’s the time stamp?

[@pjaypender1009]

No that's compassion. Empathy is literally being able to feel what someone else feels. It's an important distinction because many very good people can't feel that. Can't understand what someone else feels. Don't have empathy. They do have what dad expressed there which is compassion. It's caring about what others feel.

Fun story, girls; I was six when I got my ears pierced. I was so excited to go with my mom and grandma because it made me feel like a big girl. What I didn’t realize was that mom and grandma were getting theirs pierced for the first time too. And when we get there, they had me go first! 😂

Pain tolerance is subjective and both of you allow the girls to express their pain perception individually - lovely

[@sammymullins2014]

yes and since Tiger has gone through something she considers more painful vs Cow not going through something as painful really makes a big impact on how they perceive the pain as well. So this can help parents and kids to make their own decisions based on what Tiger and Cow mention.

[@Xxtina1111]

Great advice from the youngest daughter. This happened to me as a kid at 9, the first was so painful so I didn’t want the second one. I was with my Dad and it felt like the lady forced the second side on me. When my Mom found out she was upset. Now I extremely rarely wear ear earrings because of the discomfort and I’m upset the adults in the situation forced me to continue when I let them know I didn’t want to. Good parenting getting up and leaving and not trying to convince her to continue. She can rock that one ear ring for now and it can be a warning to other little girls they may not be ready or really want them.

[@HeyThereWilders]

We like to listen to the kiddos about how they are feeling and give them the ability to decide

[@krisrobb3205]

Always good to have big decisions on their terms. My daughter was 15 before she got her ears pierced and by 16 she got her ears double pierced. I’m sure they’ll love wearing fun and cute earrings after the initial stage.

[@elizabeths1051]

My great aunt had her ears pierced for the first time when she was in her 70s! ☺️ She wore clip on earrings until that point. She lived to be 101, so she did get to enjoy pierced ears for almost 30 years. I took my daughter to the mall for her first piercings. When she decided she wanted a second piercing set, we went to our local piercing shop, and did so again when she wanted a third set. I feel better that they are trained professionals. ❤

Jenna you are the best mom, you were willing to hold their hand you talked them through it calm them own so sweet wish everyone had a mom like you❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@HeyThereWilders]

I will always be there for my babies, im proud of them

[@pebblesmcintyre7039]

I love that you guys leave it for the kids to decide for themselves that's what I'm doing with my girls. My family wasnt happy about that because all the girls in the family got piercings at 6 months. But I feel like it's just jewelery it doesn't define gender it should be a choice and a positive experience. Love your family ❤

[@HeyThereWilders]

Only a person should define who they are. Not what they wear or lack of what they are wearing.

[@kathywrightjohnson6804]

My sister has twins. They were very hard to tell apart. So they had their ears pierced at I think three months old. When I had my daughter eight months after the twins were born, my sister's were a little mad that I didn't get my daughter's done as a baby. I figured it wasn't my body, I didn't get to choose. I left it for my daughter to choose when or if she wanted to do it. I think around ten or for her tenth birthday my sister took her to get them done. She chose at that time to do it. One problem with many in our family is an allergy to nickel so only gold earrings for us.

[@M_SC]

It seems abusive to me to cut a hole in a baby

[@HHteach2001]

[@janfromseattle]

What a sweet rite of passage. Well for me it was! I went to the pediatrician when I was 11 and they used the “gun” method. I remember thinking it was going to be painful but it happened so fast that I didn’t even think it happened! So proud of Cow and Tiger! ❤

[@HeyThereWilders]

I’m glad that you had a good experience , we are really proud of the girls for how well they did.

[@SnowPink90]

You both are such understanding parents. It’s so great to see how easily you interact with your children with a loving calming voice. Tiger was so brave and your youngest was too and I’m surprised she didn’t cry more than she did, but she did great!! I know exactly what you’re talking about mom concerning a song that is sung or played over and over again. You looked absolutely beautiful and I loved what you were wearing!! Have a great week!!😍😍🥰🥰🩷🩷

[@Honey.Goodman.Messer]

Y’all are amazing parents to your kids! I love that y’all allow them to have their voices heard and you actually listen to them. Good for you mom and dad for taking them to an actual trained piercer. The ear piercing “guns” they use in the mall are actually more damaging, can get infected quicker, and take longer to heal. Having it done at a tattoo and piercing shop usually has better outcomes, they still have a chance to get infected but not as easy, the needles they use are actually hollow, it removes a tiny bit of tissue, which makes them heal faster. Again l, y’all are amazing people and so kind to your littles!! I love watching your shorts, and videos.

[@sammymullins2014]

I have gotten my ears pierced twice from the mall guns and the first turned out fine but the second... well they got infected and I no longer have the piercing so I will definitely take my daughter when she is ready to a tattoo piercing shop

[@LottieTargett]

I have massive respect for you guys!!! and even more so for having them done with a needle and not a gun!! you're amazing parents, your kids are beyond lucky

[@JaneCrossan]

I'm over 70 and got mine done with a needle when I was 5. When I was 30 I got 2nd piercings with a gun. They used metal studs and my ears ballooned up.I still have my original first piercings and feel underdressed without earrings. Love your family ❤

[@packnetadaija]

My daughter doesn’t seem to have an interest in getting her ears pierced and I’m gonna wait till she’s ready but I can’t wait for that moment, and if she never is then that’s ok too. You guys are doing great, also it’s great that you guys went to a professional piercer because I heard a lot of problems can arise if you go to like Claire’s. You guys are awesome!

Bless Cows heart she was very brave and I felt the same when I had my ears pierced..I am now 77yrs old and wear my earrings.. Tiger was brave also…Boastful little girls..🙏🏻🙏🏻

Hey there Wilders! You are absolutely an amazing and beautiful family. I got my ears pierced at age 18. I remember being so proud. Congratulations to Cow and Tiger for demonstrating such bravery. This is a great video.

[@LYMillValley]

You absolutely did the best by taking them to someone skilled at piercings. The hand method is more gentle, less trauma to the tissue and heals faster and better. Awesome parents as usual and such a great approach making the girls feel under control and they have the final decision. Love your beautiful family.

[@cattic3550]

Honestly im 18 years old and that method of ear piercing seems terrifying to me too! I got my ears done with a gun at a piercing shop and it was so easy! So proud of cow and tiger especially cow!! i hope the second one goes smoothly! Also thank you momma for listening to your children

[@sammymullins2014]

I'm glad you had a good experience with the gun. I did for my first piercing and so did my sister but for our second ear piercings her double and mine cartilage we both got infections and no longer have those piercings.

i'm getting my ears pierced today, and i'm glad i got to see not only a good reaction, but a reaction of someone being scared. i'm much older than cow, but i still have a fear of needles and i'm glad to see that the piercing people understand. it's also nice to know that if it does hurt, i'm not the only one who feels that way!

[@letspraytherosary4410]

I really like that you don't pressure your kids to get their ears pierced. I am the same way! I want my kids to understand it's going to hurt a little (or a lot, depending on the person), and then the responsibility of cleaning them every day. I used to pierce ears and it was hard to stand by and watch parents try to talk to their kids into getting their ears pierced when they weren't ready.

[@moonshineblues204]

When my daughter was about 4 to 5 years old I asked if she wanted her ears pierced and she said no. Now she's 13 and still just likes her ears the way they are. I've also tried to get her into makeup which is been a little bit more successful, but truly I'm just happy that she is happy with herself the way she is. That's invaluable

[@TaraConway16]

Thank you so much for letting them express themselves. Also thank you for taking them to get it done by a real professional with a needle. It hurts far less and it's so much cleaner! And they were so brave! 🥰

My daughter wanted to get them done for her 8th birthday, her choice, Thank goodness the lady was quick, because I think if my daughter had more time to think she wouldn't have gotten second side done. My daughter now tells her friends who ask her if it hurt that they might want to wait. It's been over a year and she now loves changing out her earrings, but she still tells me that if she could do it again, she'd wait until she was at least 10 :)

[@dolfingirl2000]

Not gonna lie...I teared up when Cow was crying...Such brave girls...I got my ears pierced at the doctor's office when I was around 6--(so way back in 1974 or 1975 😳 Holy Moly!) Anyway...when the doctor was done with the first ear I hopped off the table and said that I was done. 😂 My Mom made me get the other ear done and I jerked my head and that is why my ears are now pierced all lopsided. 🤣 I went to get second holes back in the 90's (I was around 24) and not gonna lie...I cried like a baby and ended up taking those bad boys out.😂 The whole point of this story is so that maybe if Cow reads it she will know that even adults cry and get nervous over it. You look good little ones. Great job understanding Mom and Dad.
