[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] I am still having problem's with my DD's tattoo. It has changed the way I see her. She does not know this (although she knows I don't like it - but I have said it's because I don't like them overall). The reality is, I don't trust her to make good decisions, which is scary now that she is away at college.[/quote]

ONE YEAR LATER you are still obsessing over your AC’s tattoo, and sympathizing with OP. Go reread the OP stating that they [b]hate[/b] their child because of the tattoo. I’m going to stand by my statement that you don’t get it.[/quote]

And I love PP's misguided musings that she didn't judge her daughter's tattooed friends enough. Surely if PP had then DD would have stayed tat-free so as not do displease her dear mother.

I'm this PP. I see your point in the way I wrote it. What I should have said is that I should have better communicated to my DD that there were risks/potential future negatives to her friends' decisions to get tattoos. I should have explained that while people should not judge, they do. It was a communication failure on my part. Would it have stopped my DD from getting one? I don't know. But I truly do believe she did not go into it having fully thought things through, and this would have helped. I agree the OP should not hate her DS because of the tattoos - and I suspect she does not actually do so. But her being angry is justified, IMHO.  [/quote]
