OH but his tattooed friends will mourn the loss of his car and together they'll brew up somehting to get even, that's what you want.
That side of the family are allowed to express their opinions, my son was aware of this from the beginning, and had expected punishment from his dad if he found out.
And it was YOUR responsibility to make sure you son was not put in that position by including dad in the tattoo issue before it became reality.
I cannot step in between that.
It was your DUTY to inform dad about the tattoo before sonnyboy got his tattoo, not a matter of stepping in between. This is TOTALLY YOUR fault, legally.
I was mainly worried that he could have done something leagl to me.
He can and should, don't think you are out of the woods.
I also saw another statement, that stated if I would not have allowed this, he would have gone elsewhere. TRUE! I hoped he would never, but the craze is tattoos amongst everyone in Florida. The younger the better. And ever single person at his school seems to have at least one tat now. They are acquiring them illegally at friends houses. Kids are buying the tattoo guns and ink and giving them to friends. I did not want this done, better to be safe then sorry.
None of that is relevant, if he got a tattoo without your permission, then it would have been YOUR duty to seek legal caharges against the person or persons who did that and inform dad of the tattoo.
I too have 6 tattoos, not one can be seen by anyone, all in good taste and hidden respectfully. I do not have a personal problem w/ tattoos, as long as they are within taste.
Not relevant
I had his future in mind the whole time. That is why it is hidden and in taste and were done in a safe and sterile manner.
No it was because you hoped dad would not see the tattoo until sonnboy was an adult, but since sonnyboy is a typical immature adolescent male he bragged about it.
His gramma has also forgiven him,
That is her job as a Grandmother, to love her grandchild unconditionally. I suspect her feelings toward you for disfiguring her grandchild are not so quickly changed!
and he does not regret getting it.
Of course not, you are teaching him valuable lessons in deceit and how to break the law and maybe get away with it.
He is a very responsible child, capable of making the tattoo decision, with my guidance.
No he is not acting as a responsible child because both of you failed to involve dad in the decision, which required the consent BEFORE from both parents.
Thank you for all your support.
This is not a support group and you don't have the support of the people at this board.
By the way, did not mean to insult anyone by making the comment regarding needing advice from someone with legal experience, but judging by the remarks made in the first few replies, people did not sound ethical enough to actually have legal experience, by stating personal feelings instead of a totally professional point of view.
And for the remark about getting a tattoo on my head-WTF was that for? I sure hope you don't consider yourself a professional...
You didn't like the correct advice you got, typical for someone in denial. Good luck in court.
Think back 20 years~ Are you the same person you were back then?
The only reason I "aired out dads mess ups" is to give you a slightly better picture of what our family is like. Sometimes, and I have to admit, if I would have read MY post the first time, I would ASSUME this was a weird chick w/ tattoos, smokes 3 packs a day and pry rides a hog! I just wanted to clarify, this IS NOT THAT type of family asking fo =r advice.
