Despite facing ongoing criticism for several months, the mother has continued to share photos and videos of her daughter, Lara. Much of this content still prominently features Lara’s pierced ears, with different earrings seen in various photos and videos, indicating that someone is regularly changing them for her.
Surprisingly, Lara and her mother have amassed a significant following in the past few months. Their Instagram account now boasts over 243,000 followers, while their TikTok account has an impressive 1.6 million followers.
A TikTok video posted on June 21, 2022, showcased Lara cutely looking around with her small hoop earrings on display. The comments on the video were largely positive, with one user remarking, “She’s such a cute little baby,” while another said, “She looks like an angel sent from heaven.”
However, videos featuring Lara with her ears pierced at just 1 day old continue to generate mixed reactions, with many people still criticizing Lara’s mother for the decision to pierce her baby’s ears.
One person questioned, “Is ear piercing even legal at that age? I thought the minimum age was 3 months.” A TikTok user responded, saying, “They do it at the hospital. They asked my daughter if she wanted to pierce my granddaughter’s ears.” Another comment read, “Someone mentioned they do it for cultural reasons.”
