If I got a tattoo, I would get the tattoo what I always wanted. I would get one with my last name on my back. I always wanted a tattoo like my uncle, he had a lot of tattoos and I always thought that the coolest one was his last name on his back. I have asked my uncle how old he was when he got his 1st tattoo. He told me he was 18 and that my grandpa would not let him have a tattoo while he was still in school. My parents tell me the same thing. My mom thinks I should never get a tattoo. She says, "What are you going to do when you do not want it anymore? It hurts worse getting it removed." I think if I do not want it when I am older, that by then the process will be better and it will not hurt.

This year I have seen a lot of kids in sports that have tattoos and I think it looks good on them. I really want my name on my back and I will be 18 the end of my senior year!
