I’m thinking about letting my daughter get a tattoo. I’ve told her she can get a tat that reads, “I pay all my own bills” or “I hate my father.” I told her we could get father/daughter tattoos: “You get whatever you want, and I’ll get a broken heart.”

Little girls are all about unicorns, rainbows, butterflies and pretty flowers. When those childhood icons start showing up in permanent ink, however, the innocence is gone. It’s a bit ironic, I think.
