[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I would be reluctant, unless they are super close and have had a long relationship. My DS’s friend was tragically shot to death when she was 16, and to honor her memory my DS and his teammates added a visible symbol to their helmets (many of them knew her, not just my son). Fast forward almost four years: my DS admitted to me that he might prefer to remove the symbol but feels awkward about it, even though he’s not in touch with much of that group anymore (he’s almost 20 amd still playing the sport with the same helmet). If it had been a tattoo, well, he may have felt the same way. Otoh, I can’t imagine explaining a no answer to the friend. That’s a tough one. [/quote] “Very close” isn’t just some classmate. My dad lost his best friend at 16 and it still affects him 50 years later. It’s not something you get over.[/quote]
