[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kid (he is a kid even though he’s 18) is away in college.  He lied and told his dad he needed money for a refrigerator.  Dad did not question this, even though he knew he has a refrigerator in his college suite and gave him money.  Kid went to a tattoo parlour (cheapest he could find because refrigerators are not that expensive) and got two tattoos that are horrible, beyond horrible.  Worst tattoos ever.  Kid knows I hate tattoos.  We’ve had multiple conversations about them.

This was two weeks ago.  I’m a mess.  I can’t sleep or think of anything else other than what he did to his once perfect body.  They are trashy and disgusting.  I hate my son for doing this to himself and ME.  I can’t function I’m so upset.  I don’t know what to do.  He says he won’t remove them.  I don’t want to see my son when he comes home from spring break because I’m so angry and disappointed.[/quote]

Tattoo isn't the issue, lying and misusing family money is the real problem here. You need to focus on that. As far as tattoos go, he is out of the womb and no longer a minor so its his body, his choice. He could've done later with his own money, once off of your payroll. What the heck is perfect body obsession? One accident or disease can alter or end it. Get over it. [/quote]
