I would never do it, but two things could be argued.

1. It's not permanent. Holes in the ear will heal if they are allowed to. Also, it's not a surgery. The use of anesthetic, topical or otherwise, isn't necessary. I don't know of anyone who ever died as a result of an ear piercing.
2. Piercing one's ears is not medically debatable as being a useful procedure to prevent future illness. Circumcision is highly debatable as useful.
