[quote=Anonymous]Not a chance. The harsh reality is that the daughter will hopefully live a long life and, while she will undoubtedly be impacted by the loss of her friend, that loss doesn't have to stare back at her in the mirror every day. Or be revisited every time a stranger asks about her tattoo. Or be ever-present because of a token gesture given at the peak of her grief. To all those who think this is uncaring, how many of you have memorial tattoos of those you've lost? Your friends, your parents, etc? Exceptionally few, I imagine. Why? Because there are myriad other ways to memorialize loved ones. Saying no to a tattoo doesn't mean you don't care. It just means it's not the way in which you want to remember this person.[/quote]
