That is hilarious, part of me actually wants to see it happen.

(16,038 posts)I refused to allow it...he pleaded and argued and I refused until he was 18 and graduated basic training...I took him to the best artist I could find for a custom tat...I got my first one that day too. Since he has gotten 4 more. He and I both got tats again last December...it is a bonding experience..

(53,061 posts)When my 16 year old daughter wanted to get a tattoo I undermined all of her prepared arguments by immediately saying
"Yes"
But two conditions.
First you don't want to go to some place and get Hepatitis so I want you to visit all of the Tattoo places and pick two of the cleanest so I can go check them out.
Then you don't want to get a tattoo and then change your mind later on. So you give me a drawing of the tattoo you want and if 6 months later you still want it I will take you and pay for it my self.
Of course by adding these time consuming steps, nothing was ever done.

And I didn't spend all these years keeping my son relatively scar free only to have him ruin his skin on purpose. Obama's strategy may work with his daughters, but I am afraid it would only encourage my son.
