Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : I come from a somewhat conservative household but it’s more my mom than my father. I’m currently 20 years old but at 16, I asked my  mother if I could get my septum pierced at 18. She basically mocked me for it and said no (which, to be fair sounds like what most moms would say). I ended up saving Christmas money until 18 to get my septum pierced after my birthday. At first, I hid it from her for a few days but I felt bad so I decided to tell her that I had my septum pierced. She ended up being super mad, telling me that I was a disappointment, etc. Til this day, she complains about how ugly I look with it and how no one will want to be around me. She says anyone who says it looks good is lying to me and that I look like I have no future (I’ve always been in a school and been actively looking for a job since I left my previous one). She also says that I look demonic with it. I’ve never taken it out because it actually makes me feel more confident about my nose. I  have always hated my nose and still hate how it looks when I have it flipped up. The piercing makes me forget about that insecurity and I just really love it! I don’t have a very big one, check my post history to see what it looks like.  Anyways, am i the asshole for not taking my septum piercing out since my mom hates it?
