    Default Children +Tattoos (Yes, You Read Correctly)

    10-Year Old Gets Tattoo

    What do you think?

    Ignoring that the tattoo is probably going to look like shit in a few years...

    Does the reasoning for getting a tattoo at such a young age matter?

    Do you consider it to be irresponsible of the mother?

    Do you think it's considered a crime?

    I don't know if it's illegal in Canada.

    The reasoning definitely matters to me. I went into it thinking "That's fucking retarded" but, when I read what it was, I totally changed my mind. I have no idea what I would do in her situation.

    I would tell him it's a fucking great idea, but wait until you've physically grown up more (ie 18+or-), so it won't look like shit when he does.

    IIRC, and don't quote this as truth or fact, but I think you can get a tattoo legally in Canada at 16 with signed parental consent at a tattoo shop.

    That's what I have heard as well. I think the age limit is 16 with parental consent here for tattoos and lower (like 14) for piercings. I could be wrong though.

    As for the story, I don't see any issue at all. Mother gave the consent and the child did it willingly. Nothing was forced on him.

    There is nothing difficult at all about the decision. It would just be "No", plain and simple.

    There is no justifying a tattoo on a 10 year old imo.

    I've seen enough ink on guys/girls that got it when they were 20 and it is detroyed by the fact that they weren't done growing yet. It's just dumb to let a kid get something like that. He'll regret not waiting until he was grown up to get something like that done by the time he is grown up.

    I see a LOT wrong with it. It seems to me that there was a real lack of INFORMED consent which is typically what is required. The woman doesn't have any idea what she is letting him do I would argue. The only bigger fool than the mother is the hack who did the work.

    I can personally vouch for having a tattoo I got at 18 getting fucked up by 23, but tattoos can get touched up, re-done or completely covered up. Saying "It's going to change" is a poor excuse not to get one.

    Huge difference between 18 and ten in decision making (with the obvious exception of the mother), physiology, remaining growth, etc. etc.

    I just personally think it's a horrible idea and while arrest is overkill, a serious reality check was likely due. To be, that's NOT the kind of decision that a properly thinking adult makes unless you are part of a culture where it is a ritualistic "requirement". That's the only time I would consider the argument personally.

    And that's why the content of the tattoo matters to me here. The kid's feelings for his dead brother aren't likely to ever change. If he wanted a Pokemon tattoo, sure, yeah, I totally agree that he and his Mom need to back the fuck up, but you'll be hard pressed to convince me that getting a memorial for your brother should be considered the same as getting Charizard.

    EDIT: Please keep in mind that I'm not trying to defend this. I still have no idea whether I agree with this or not.

    I understand your point of view for sure but there are a lot of times in life when things seem like the right thing to do, including the motivating factors behind them, but it's still the prudent choice to not.

    It's not like I think it is going to fuck up the kids life or anything but I still think it's a very irresponsible decision to have made.

    Yes, Mibz and I already got along just fine BEFORE the boner talk in the other thread. This is completely unrelated. A mere coincidence.

    JRS is still a dick but I agree with him here.

    There were good intentions here, but the decision was still wrong.

    The Mom should have offered to pay for Henna tattos until he was old enought to get a real tattoo. Or had custom t-shirts, or blanket, or drinking cups etc. made until he was older.

    Then again playing Devil's advocate here, it is perfectly fine to chop off you newborns foreskin, punch holes through a 1 year olds ear lobes, but an arrestable offence to ink your 10 year old kids arm.

    I said ignore the fact that the tattoo would look gross in a few years!

    Now let's say that you don't have a problem with the tattoo and you go to an artist to get it done. As far as you know, your consent is all that's needed to get it done.

    Do you fault the artist for doing the tattoo and not telling you that it is illegal to tattoo someone under the age of 18 (and for that matter, a 10-year old)?

    Absolutely.

    I did say the only bigger idiot in this story than the mother was the one who actually did it. If they're going to arrest or charge ANYONE it should be him. If I break the laws as they pertain to my profession, it's me hanging on the end of the line and not my client.

    Actually.. I disagree with the last two. My wife wanted to get our daughters ears pierced and I flatly refused. I would have done the same for the foreskin too, unless medically required. She also suggested getting the dog's ear pierced too, but she retracted that one once she sobered up.

    I love the intent of the kid, totally understand wanting to memorialize something important. But there's no way a small kid like that has the decision making skills to get a tattoo at that age. And the mom is an idiot for allowing it.

    Did you get parental consent?
