This should be a good topic, with many different views I would imagine.
Alot of you have young teenage daughters or (like myself) have a child who eventually will be a teen, huh!
Anyway, we went to the water park yesterday and I couldn't help but notice this young girl that was in the line up as well. She was with some people, I could only assume it was her mom and her sibblings.She stood out to me b/c of the big tattoo she had on her lower back. Her mother didn't seem to be the best roll model.I was confused as to if they were actually mother and daughter b/c they seemed to be getting along to well and while we were sitting next to the pool she spent the whole time with this lady.But she was an older lady, who wasn't very well kept and she was very overweight.By not very well kept, I mean, dirty looking.
While her sibblings were splashing around in the pool, the young girl stayed close to her mother (?) and was afraid to get wet. She had every hair on her head in its place,her make up on, her belly button pierced, a tattoo on her thigh and the big one on her lower back. When she was stood up talking to the lifeguard her mother must have been talking about the tattoo b/c she made the young girl turn around and they were looking at it.
And I got to thinking, whatever kind of realtionship they have, I am sure I won't have one like that with my daugther.Im sure we will be close b/c I am still very young, but they were more like friends.But the age gap seemed to be to weird for that.
Im assumming the young girl was between 14-15 yrs old. And at what age do you say yes to a teen wanting to get body art done? They may think that know what they want at the time (been there) but Im sure they don't.Then every where I looked there weren't any tattoo's but pierced noses and belly buttons.
So what do you gals think? How young is to young? Should they be moved out of the house before they get this stuff done? Im wondering how many wrinkles my 9 yr old will give me when I get older!
