Tattooed 10-Year-Old's Mom Arrested

VIDEOS SUCK I JUST WANT TO READ THE ARTICLE.

Keep looking for the actual text of the story, but all I see is one sentence. Yes, some of us still do like to read...

Interesting they arrest this woman for allowing her son to get a tattoo that means something but they didn't arrest the woman who let her daughter get a "makeup" tattooed on her for a beauty pageant....

i just came for the comments

The Mom asked, what do you say to a ten year old? "NO!" is what you say.

I like that he is standing there in a childs elmo shirt, but get's to make the choice of an adult... Some things make me SMH- really great parent skills!

Yahoo: how about some text? i never watch video on your site. i hate commercials and like to read.

There has to be other ways to honor a deceased person

The argument is whether or not the decision warranted arrest. Each family, if placed under the microscope of public scrutiny, would be shredded and decisions deemed idiotic and unsound. The answer of whether arrest was a necessary action would be no - under what statute? To what purpose? Create a precedence for future local or municipal law resulting in fines? At some point there seems to be an abuse of power teeming beneath the intervening of the law....Speaking from the place of a member of society, I may not agree with the permanence of a tattoo, however, I have never lost a sibling and do not know what I would do if I had. Grief and loss are not regulated by judgment or social decorum...think on those things as you sit in judgment

After reading some of the responses to this topic I am thoroughly convinced at least % 90 of the imbeciles posting on yahoo should be sterilized.

Next. I just couldn't deny him Marijuana, carjacking, gang banging, selling dope, etc.

More proof..........You can't fix stupid !

I HATE videos. And I HATE video ads even more. Can't you print the text as well???

Please don't let her vote.

What can she tell him? that they can design a t shirt to memorialize him. Or have a painting commissioned. Anything, you stupid hoodrat, but tattooing a little kid. I hope they come for the tattoo artist next. His dumb #$%$ should know the law, or at least have better sense than to tattoo a 10 year old. Idiot people, he's still growing, the tattoo will be ruined in a few years anyway. Jeez.

As for what you should tell your 10 year old, how about " I know you love and miss your brother and I understand you want to honor him, but how about we choose another way for you to do that as tattoos are a permanent decision and something you should wait until you are older to get."

My 16 year old niece wanted to get a tattoo to commerate her father who died from Leukemia complications. My sister was adult enough to let her know that if she still wanted the tattoo at 18 then she would be more than happy to take her to get the tattoo and to pay for it as well.

Here's how you deny a kids request: Say "no"

Yahoo should work for the government

first why da hell are the writers sooooooooo lazy......??...second...really chick....he is a child....you tell him no....

I don't agree with any kind of tats, but to each his own....call me out of touch but parents inflict pain on their children by piercing their babies ears...I' ve seen babies as young as one month old with that...isn't that painful for the child as well ???? We need to be worrying about all these new laws that are being passed thats gonna affect our future as Americans, our constitutional rights are being ripped away and we're talking about some silly mother who used poor judgement...send her to parenting class and move the heck on.
