I don't know about other parents but if my child would have been at that age and done it without my permission I would not be upset. But this is only MY opinion. Both of my kids were baptized at age 8 and 9 but they asked me to be. Rev. Jeff Arnold baptized both of my kids.

Re: Parents Consent To Baptize Children
Randy, Mom was still a minor.
I believe that there comes a time when the child is morally responsible for their own salvation, and parental authority must yield. It would be at the point that the teenager is willing to suffer the familial fallout as the price to pay for w walk with God. The amount of fallout will depend on the level of antipathy toward the Apostolic life held by the parents. The question is whether or not a church and the child is willing to take an unpopular stand. A sadly complex question.
