Today, my dad found out I got a tattoo behind his back and is really really upset. When I got home from work my car wasn't in the driveway. When I asked my dad where it was, he replied "you'll get it back when your tattoo comes off." FML

When you willfully break the rules, don't come crying to FML when you see the consequences.

YDI OP, its a risk that you were willing to take obviously. I got a tattoo while still under my parents roof also against their wishes, I got one inside my bottom lip hoping to satisfy them that it wasnt visible but I still had one, so I was content. I got my car/cell taken away for a day and then they realized they couldn't really do anything about it. :) Just takes some time to break your parents in.

How do you get to work without a car? Maybe you don't need it.

If he paid for the car, and since he pays for the roof over your head, he had every right to do that. Don't like it? Move out and pay your own damn bills. If you want the privileges of being an adult like getting a tattoo, you have to take the responsibilities that come with it.

Like OMG! your dad is so uncool! First, the dick buys you a car, gives you a roof over your head and then says you cant get a totally awesome scar on your body that you for sure will never regret getting later in life. And then he takes the car away when you don't listen to him!! HOW DARE HE! I say call the cops, this is serious child abuse...

I disagree with some of the posters here saying that getting a tattoo will automatically ruin your job prospects. It really depends more on whether the tattoo is visible or not in work clothes. If it's going to be hidden all the time when the OP's working then what's the problem? It's not like his/her employer is going conduct a strip search for any tattoos XD. However the wording of the FML and username (tattooooooface) implies that the OP is still dependent on his/her parents and got a tattoo on the face so...YDI, hard.

I totally agree. In fact if you want to wrap burritos at Freebirds I think you are required to have tattoos, the more conspicuous the better. It also doesn't hurt to be able to fit your fingers through your ear lobes.

I still live at home with my parent, but I work, pay all my own bills, including college and car. All you people who are saying parents have the right to control you just because you live with them need to look at all sides. Parents should only have the right to control you if they are going to be responsible for everything in your life, if my parents paid for my car and college than I would follow their no tattoo rule, but since I pay for all my stuff and am legally an adult than my parents have to get over my tattoos. And tattoos dont really stop you from getting jobs unless they are gang related or on your face. I have two, one on my back and half of my left arm done and that didnt stop me from getting work as a graphic designer.

I have to agree... the older you get it's more of a tenant/landlord situation... and parent's are (and should be) more stict about the rules of renting then a regular landlord... especially if the kid isn't paying rent or working. No guys over, no tatoos, no drinking, ect... Welcome to the real world.

I think in the OP's case it was on the face (based on the username) >_> .

It's ink, not a lobotomy. Your dad should love you no matter what. Piercings, tattoos, and unusual hair colours shouldn't matter. He can still give you consequences, but I don't see what the big deal is if its your choice

Who says the dad doesn't love her? He's being a responsible parent and trying to teach her rules and consequences. She obviously knew he didn't approve of tatoos. Does that mean she didn't love him because she "went behind his back" to get inked?
