Kim Kardashian is criticized after her 12-year-old daughter shows up with a new piercing

Summary Kim Kardashian has been criticized for allowing her 12-year-old daughter North West to get a dermal piercing on her middle finger and for clothing choices deemed inappropriate for her age.

Kim Kardashian is facing criticism after her eldest daughter, 12-year-old North West, got a piercing. The piercing, a dermal piercing on the teenager's middle finger, was noticed during the family's last trip to Rome .

According to fans, North is too young to get a piercing. "She's 12. What is Kim doing?" one user criticized on social media. "Who lets their 12-year-old get piercings? And who pierces a 12-year-old? At 12, my daughter hadn't even had her ears pierced," said another.

It's not just the accessory that's being questioned by netizens. The outfit has also been the target of criticism, as it's being considered inappropriate for her age. So far, Kim hasn't commented.
