Teen Mom's Farrah Abraham Explains Why She Let Daughter Sophia,13, Get Her Septum Pierced

Teen Mom‘s Farrah Abraham is defending letting her 13-year-old daughter, Sophia, get a septum piercing for her birthday.

If you aren’t familiar, Farrah starred on 16 & Pregnant while pregnant with Sophia years ago. They went on to star on Teen Mom together. Sophia‘s dad Derek died in a car accident while Farrah was pregnant.

“I think her generation of 13 is much different than my generation of 13. Sophia is the first … in my family to get a septum piercing, especially at 13,” Farrah told TMZ. “… I would rather it be by a professional, sanitized and clean, than my teen going, sneaking off and doing it herself and getting an infection.”

She did add that she “wasn’t for it…” but Sophia “did better than her COVID shot — I am shocked.”

“To those who might feel it is inappropriate that my daughter got her nose professionally done, legally done, I’m all about being legal,” she added. “We abided by the law. I am doing my best as a parent to make sure that she is healthy and happy, and I covered those bases. So congratulations to Sophia. I’m wishing her the best in her teen years, and if she wants to get more piercings, more power to her.”

There is a video embedded below of Sophia getting her septum pierced. Warning: it’s a bit graphic and not for the squeamish!
