Today, my daughter proudly showed me her new tattoo sleeve, which is made up of an angry cupcake, hemp leaves, and a My Little Pony character. She's almost 30, still unemployed, and still lives in my home. I now have no hope of her ever becoming a productive member of society. FML

Today, my daughter had the words "Always classy, never trashy" tattooed across her lower back in crappy cursive lettering. She doesn't understand the irony. FML

Well hello sinners…

Today, I learned that ever since I got a tattoo, my mother had edited her will, said I was no longer her daughter, and took me out of it. While my sister got a payout, I basically missed out all because of a small tattoo of a flower on my ankle. I’m a single struggling starving mom. She knew this. FML

Today, is the day I got my first tattoo. It's also the day where my mom screamed at me, gave me the silent treatment, and kicked me out of the house. Apparently I’m not considered her daughter anymore, because my skin is “damaged” now. I don’t have other family anywhere, and I have nowhere to go. FML

Economic abuse

Today, I got my first tattoo. I felt good about it, until I told my mom, who was not happy. She responded by taking me out of her car insurance policy, family plan, and charging me for rent every month since I, "wanna be all grown up now.” FML

Today, I finally figured out what I want to do for the rest of my life. Too bad my tattoos will prevent me from ever getting hired. Guess you were right, Mom. FML

Today, my mom found out that I got a tattoo two years ago. She got mad and spanked me. I'm 33 years-old. FML

Today, a cashier sniffed at the money "you people" waste on tattoos. I have two full sleeve bamboo thickets to cover up old self-harm scars, but her criticism caused the self-hatred to come roaring back. Now it's a struggle to not fall back into those habits and damage that admittedly expensive artwork. FML

A teenage dream's so hard to beat…

Today, my stepdaughter proudly showed off her new tattoo. It says "Jace’s place" in sloppy script on her lower belly. She’s 15. Jace is a boy she’s been seeing for 3 months. She got the tattoo in "some guy’s garage." It happened during her weekend visit with her father. Hello teenage rebellion. FML

I would kick her out of she's spending her money on tattoos and not saving for a place of her own.

How is she getting money for tats if she's unemployed, except in rare cases no kid should live with their parents at 30, time for tough love.

Replace her with a cat. I'm sure you won't even notice a difference.

Well, they'll notice the hairballs and the lack of tattoos.

I voted YDI. Kick that mooch out so she'll be forced to grow up; you've coddled her too long.

That is the only way she will learn. Tough love.

How the hell does she pay for a tat like that? I'm employed and I couldn't afford it, much less care to get one.

You seem to have instilled a huge sense of self-worth and created someone who strives to be their best! Wonderful parenting on your part!!

FYL. I'd kick my kid out of the house if they had anything to do with MLP.

Well that's harsh and unreasonable. Kids shouldn't be clones of their parents- they should be allowed to have their own tastes and decide for themselves what they're interested in (within reason).
