Q. I have been wanting to get a tattoo with my kids names somehow incorporated into a picture.....They are boys, 7 and 10 years old. I like dragonflies, mushrooms, lizards, flowers. They like dragons, flames, motorcycles and snakes. I only want a small to medium tattoo and we cannot reach any agreement. It's going to be on my body, but I want it to have meaning, and want them to be involved in the decision. Anybody have any good ideas?
A. I have a tattoo artist friend who got his 10 year old to tattoo his own name across his hand, although you might not want your child handling a tattoo gun, so get them to write their names on a piece of paper, and decide where and how you are going to position them. Then sit down with your kids and come up with something together. Use a motif that you nor them will ever tire of, these include: plants, planets and stars, elements (not like uranium!), things of that nature.
In my opinion, no one should get portraits, tribal, or any disney character! But that's my opinion, take it or leave it.

tattoos????
Q. i know that i'm young (13-15) and i can't get a tattoo just yet. but i kind of wanted to get something written on my wrist. how dangerous is that? and how much does a tattoo hurt? and no, please don't compare it to child labor. my mom already said that but i can't exactly relate to that. at all. anyways, and if not on my wrist i would want to get one where my dad wouldn't see. other than my butt or boob?

what the heck.
i meant that if i said where my dad cant see (he's against tattoos) everyone would say butt or boobs.
pervert.
guys you seriously think i was getting one now???? get real. my mom would murder me. i mean when im 18 (supposed to be a b-day present for me for her since she got my sister one). my mum would be signing and watching over it.

A. As far as the danger goes, the only place that is NOT a good idea is on your head, as there can be a LOT of bleeding. Another bad place: the hands and feet. The skin on these places sheds and regrows so fast that the tattoos fade quickly- but not dangerous. Otherwise, if you talk to a tattoo artist, they will be able to tell you the risks of getting it where.
The pain involved with a tattoo depends on the person, but generally anywhere that it is over bone with no fat or muscle (ie ankle, tailbone, shoulder blade, spine!) really hurts. Also, places where the skin is naturally soft and tender- wrists, forearms, armpit, ankles, inside thighs- all hurt.
I've known girls who have passed out fom getting the "tramp stamp" on their lower back, and also guys who've been reduced to tears when getting inked on their ribs. Other people sit with a smile and read a magazine.
Since you are so young, it is not likely that you will get a licensed tattoo artist to do this for you- and maybe not even with a parents' consent! Many artists are bound by the rules of the parlor they work for. I would not advise going to a "garage artist" or a friend of a friend who happens to have a tattoo gun. This is how AIDS and Hep. C get spread!
My advice is try Henna. It is a strong dye made from plants, and comes from India. It takes a little practice to use it right, but you can get some stellar effects with it. It stays on for 3-6 months, and fades after that. Women in India get their hands and feet decorated in it before their weddings, and it can look just as good (if not better) than real tattoos!
You can order it here, or google for a place in your city on where to get it:

If you really like it, you can just re-apply it every few months until you are old enough to actually get inked. If you don't like it, you don't have to reapply it! You're happy, Mom's happy!
Hope this was helpful, and Good Luck!
PS~ The only reason anyone mentioned giving blood to your kids: you just can't get inked when you are PREGNANT because of the risk of infection. Before or after you have kids doesn't matter!
