Should I Allow My Friend to Pierce Me With a Kit or Needle?

By Karen L. Hudson, About.com

Question: Should I Allow My Friend to Pierce Me With a Kit or Needle?
Answer: If you have no idea what you are doing then you are not a very good friend, to put your friend in danger like that. And if your friend knows that you have no idea what you're doing, and she wants you to do it anyway, then she is an idiot. The truth hurts sometimes and I'm sorry to have to be the one to give you such a harsh reality check, but it if keeps you from hurting your friend, then I have done my job. Tell her to go to a professional.
