I am a tattooed stay-at-home mom that lives in Mesa and I am looking to talk with other moms that have dealt with a lot of the same issues of being a tattooed mom. I was also wondering if you would want to help me spread a positive word about us, tattooed mommies?
I have been inspired to work on a project that will be representing the softer side of tattooing in America today. Child inspired tattooing is a huge phenomenon among Mothers and Fathers looking to devote more of themselves to their children.
I have had the most fantastic time meeting people and hearing their stories of children lost, children blessings and just showing their kids that Mom and Dad know how to have fun and express themselves through this body art.
I know that you know someone who has a tattoo! Is it inspired by a child? If so, have them call me!
I am looking for Mothers, grandmothers, aunts and friends that have been inked!
If you know of anyone that would like to share their inspirational story and don't mind having a photo shoot , send them my way.
Please forward them this email or email me with their name and number and I can give them a call.
Prayers, pictures and inspiring stories are what this book is all about!
ADthanksVANCE,
Christine

Hi, well I only have one
Hi, well I only have one small tattoo.My husband and I got inked on a vacation to hollywood after we were married.
My ex-husband actually owns a tattoo shop.His new wife has lots of tatoos. I will forward your info. to her.
I must say there is nothing wrong with a mommy who is inked!
Good luck on your adventure!
Thanks for your
Thanks for your encouragement! I appreciate you forwarding my info on to your ex's new wife. That is so big of you, with the ex's and all, you must be a very special person! Thanks again...

You are very welcomed!
You are very welcomed! Thanks for saying a nice thing to me.Him and I knew each other since grade school....for all involved it is better to love then hate!
Just an extension of my famliy.
For those who think it is tacky or you can't be a good mom.I wonder how many times you have talked to another mother and she had tattoos...you just didn't know.The old saying don't judge a book by it's cover applies here...don't you think?
Now that's an
Now that's an oxymoron...Tattoo Mommies! I don't mean to offend you but I can not stand tattoos, especially on women (of any age) with kids. I am young and open minded about a lot of things, but not tattoos. I always have and always will associate it with one word: Tacky.
Anna
yeah, it's obvious by that
yeah, it's obvious by that comment that you didn't mean to offend her.
Well - I have 2 small tattoos.....I got them 15 years ago...what can I say, they are a part of me now. I can't see spending thousands of dollars having them removed so some gossipy narrow minded hens don't think I am tacky..... I also don't think it makes me less of a mother - there is more to being a good mom than what is on the outside. I realize that is a huge revelation for some, but it's the truth.
My sister just got a tattoo around her wrist - it is a delicate design with the letters BOGOL - it stands for "brag on God out loud" - she had a bracelet that said the same, but the clasp broke and she kept losing it, so she just had it inked on. I think that is cool as hell. She said she gets a lot of comments questions and it allows her to share her faith and the Gospel with others in a very unassuming way.
Tat2mome , it sounds like you are trying to do something positive......rock on!
Thanks Katy1999, You are
Thanks Katy1999,
You are great and thanks for getting my back. I know this is a sticky subject. Your sister sounds like an amazing person to put her dedication to God right out there! That is awesome!
You should have her contact me! tattoomommies@hotmail.com...thanks again,,,no,no,no...you rock on, girl!

Thanks for your comments, I
Thanks for your comments, I appreciate them. One word of advice, if your open to it, about selective tolerance, from my mother who had to tell me this at one time in my own life.
Life has a way of making you tolerant of those things you are less tolerant of. If you say you can't stand little white dogs, don't be surprised if one moves into the house next to you!

How is this an oxymoron?
How is this an oxymoron? Once you have kids, you are unable to be yourself? I had 6 tattoos before my 2 girls and I now have 9. I don't think tacky is the word you're looking for.
My children are 22 months and 3 1/2. I've been told they are the most well behaved, intelligent little girls some have ever met. I am trying my hardest to not raise "tacky" human beings and I think I'm doing a fine job at that. How does having ink on my skin determine the outcome of my parenting?
My 3 1/2 year old has come to me and said she will get tattoos when she gets older. That's fine, but it's my job to be sure that doesn't happen until the age of 18.
I don't mean to offend, but you are not open minded if you make such an offensive statement as mommies with tattoos are tacky. I take great offense to that. I would think in the world we live in today, you can find better usage for the word tacky.
i know this is a forum for
i know this is a forum for "mommies", but ran across this while searching for my next tattoo. had to post, mommies please forgive me for my intrusion!! would have to agree that some tat's are lil tacky for "my" taste", but i like to drink guiness, my brother cant stand the taste of guiness. you see my point!! my son had a heart transplant at the age of 4 now he is 7 doing well. i face the fact that i will out live my child, unless something unfortunate happens to me. im looking for a tattoo that celebrates his life. when i get this tattoo i dare someone to call it "tacky". my nathaniel has been poked, cut, blood draws, deathly ill, died twice, put on a full by-pass heart and lung machine. on top of that been dignosed with "high functioning" autism. we have face and have over come so many battles in his short life, how dare you say that something that reminds me of my baby is tacky. people express things in their own way. for me, i have pics of nate, but i want something on my persons. something that is a part of me. who are you to judge ne of us that are tatted up? if this is a religous thing then read your bible in revaltions says that jesus sits on the throne with both forearms tattooed. again mommies sorry for the rant, just get annoyed by people that like to judge just by outward appearance. TATTED MOMMIES ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just a thought,, You say you
Just a thought,, You say you want something that is "a part of you",, Isn't he already "a part of you", or is this about you??
You should make sure the tat you get is on your torso area, because you may loose an arm or a leg in an accident, and there goes that part of him, if that should happen..
And no, I don't have tats, but probably because of my great fear of needles.. and now in my 40's I wouldnt chose to have one if I wasnt afraid of needles. But I have seen some that I think are tacky and some I think are cool.. But my children are a part of me no matter what, I have one daughter who passed away and she is still a very big part of who I am and I think of her daily and she died 16 years ago,, I don't need a tat to remind me of her and all the change and glory she brought to my life the little time she spent here on earth with me and my husband, and we do know that we will see her again in heaven..
" just my Opinion"
I don't have any tattoos,
I don't have any tattoos, but a girlfriend (she is a mother) just got one. I personally don't like them. Doesn't stop me from still enjoying my friends who have them. Btw, the mother that just got one, she is still an amazing mother who loves her children and takes care of them just the same as before the tattoo.
I was raised to not judge the book by the cover. Shouldn't that hold true all your life?? Think of the great books you would miss if you did that, the same holds true for the amazing people you miss by judging before knowing them. Don't give me the "it says alot about them" I say get over being judgemental. This is the only life you get - enjoy it.
I will give your information to my newly tattooed friend.

I don't particularly like them, if it's small and easy to cover then I guess I don't mind them that much. However, I'm not a fan of the whole body thing! Although, to each his own and I'm fine with that. I don't think it makes you any less of a parent if you have them, as your parenting isn't made up of the art on your body, parenting is a whole different ball game!! I say different strokes for different folks. You either like them or you don't, but I don't think you can judge ones parenting abilities on tat's!!

I know lots of moms with tattoos...most did it when they were younger. I don't know of any of them with any regrets about it. At least they haven't shared any.

I do not have a tattoo on my skin however I do personally know a couple of my friends that got tattoos before they became moms or 'grew up' however they puts it, they regret it now. I know other moms who have tattoos do not regret it. It varies.
I personally don't really care for tattoos for me. I honestly don't think it's all worth the hoopla.

The only thing you meant to do was to offend. And calling yourself open minded would be like calling Charles Manson a little anti-social. This post was clearly NOT directed towards you, so I have no idea why you felt the need to come in and comment. There's something we all have, it's called FREE WILL, perhaps you've heard of it. Maybe you should exercise it and pass over issues that have NOTHING to do with you. Incidentally, inferring that someone who is tattooed is a bad mother or bad role model is no different than saying that someone who has different religious beliefs from you is a bad person, mother, and/or role model. Welcome to 2007, open your eyes and look around you might learn something.
That being said, I am a tattooed mommy. I have 5 tattoos and my husband has one. They are not related to my child, but my husband is interested in possibly getting one that is related to our son and his late father.
It is better to be hated for what you are, than to be loved for what you are not.
Moms, Thanks for all the
Moms,
Thanks for all the comments, good and bad!
Wow, did I open up a can of worms or what?!?!
I can appreciate the views of many Moms on this subject. Tattoos are not a fad or a trend, tattoos don't come and go, they are there forever. A hole will heal, colored hair will be changed but NOT a tattoo. The only changes on a tattoo are if you add to it. People that get tattoos are not posers who want it to "look good" for a trend. They put a lot of thinking, emotion, and spirituality into their inked image. I love this artform and only hope everyone could see its beauty.
~Christine Selman
Well, I imagine that not
Well, I imagine that not everyone who gets a tatoo is as enlightened as you -- I've known people who got a tatoo without putting any thought into it other than it would be "cool," and later regretted it.
But, that being said, I think it can also be a wonderful art form and I think you've started a brilliant conversation thread here. Very thoughtful comments! I have only one question for you.....what about when you're 90 years old, with wrinkly, transparent skin -- what will the tatoo look like then or will you care?
DesertMom

I think that if I live to
I think that if I live to age 90, the look of my tattoos will probably be the least of my worries...............either that or I won't remember that I have them.....
Here here Katy! If we all
Here here Katy!
If we all worried about what this or that will look or be like when we're 90, we'd never do anything.
I find it interesting that we always tell children to be themselves and to express themselves and not to let anyone make them feel bad for being who they are, but then there are some who feel it's their duty to look down upon others for being themselves.
It is better to be hated for what you are, than to be loved for what you are not.
Hey desertmom, I dont know
Hey desertmom, I dont know about you, but when you're 90 or even 60 for that matter, are you really going to care what your skin looks like, aside from what might turn into looking like an ink blob your skin is already going to be a dissaster! A thing called nature and gravity take over and no matter what we do we will look like damaged goods and not be trying to show off our skin like when we are young. i love when people ask that question, "well what about when you're older..." what about it, I'm gonna look like hell anyways so why not have something unique while I'm young and vibrant because I wont give a (inappropriate term) when I'm old. Live a little for cryin out loud. It is a personal choice and those who choose it do it knowing that its permanent. Whats even more amusing to me is when I hear someone say that tattoos are "tacky" that's your opinion, someone may say that your clothes are tacky, its just a personal choice. Ink is just another way to express yourself. It does not change who you are or place a "bar" on the abilities to be a parent. Some of the best parents are those who are more open to things than those who are narrow minded whos' kids more than likely will grow up to rebel against them and everything they were raised to believe.
Desertmom, and here you
Desertmom, and here you complain about me when I don't agree with some of you..At least I don't us inappropriate words or cut down your kids like y/m has and the latest comment made to you about your opinion of tattoo's.. I'm mild comparied to these two ppl.
" just my Opinion"
Hello, I am a tattooed (and
Hello, I am a tattooed (and some piercings!) mommy of a beautiful 5 year old girl. My fiance is also tattooed - sleeved (upper arms) for that matter - and he's a cop! Christine, I will email you about my story. The only thing I have to say is that you can't judge a book by it's cover. I have a successful career and a great family, but it does bother me (slightly) at the judgment people pass.
I think its great that you
I think its great that you are looking to write a book about this topic. I so wanted to get a tattoo during my college years - I even picked out the place I'd have it done (bottom portion of my right foot - a few inches below my ankle - as to be discreet - so that if I had shoes on for an interview it could be hidden.) I was gonna have it as a symbol of my affiliation with a non-profit organization I was very much involved in philanthropically while in college. However, once I told my father - that was the end of that dream! My best friend (who I thought was more conservative than me) had one done on her lower hip area - I think it looked neat - she even had nice colors in it. To this day (as I slowly approach 40) I still have no tattoo. Oh well. I think its great to make the choice to have a tattoo (or tattoos) - its a freedom of artist art and also maybe even attachment to something you wish to be affiliated with for the rest of your life (as was my case for justifying why I would have gotten a tattoo - and yes I still am very much involved with this same non-profit organization in my daily life today.) I think there's nothing wrong with mommies and tattoos!

My brother, sister and best
My brother, sister and best friend all have tatoos (none child inspired, one alcohol inspired however...) Seems mainstream enough now a days that people wouldn't get upset by them or make assumptions.
I do find myself interested in what people choose, like with bumperstickers, I wonder if people are trying to make a statement about themselves or if it is just for themselves.
I've seen young guys with their own names written and I find that interesting, are they afraid they'll forget or do they get tired of telling people, so they just point to their bicept, or is that all they know about themselves at their young age, and more insightful tattoos will come later? Maybe I spend too much time thinking ....
Anyway interesting thread, good luck with on going conversations and with motherhood!

That made me laugh...I have one that was alcohol inspired..I got it while I was attending a bachelorette party( this was pre-mommy, back when I was a single carefree gal).....it's a small black cat on an inconspicous part of my back......probably not well thought out, but I have to accept it's part of me now.
I have discussed both my tattoos with my son....I told him that it's up to him once he is an adult and putting his feet under his own table as to whether he wants a tattoo. I told him how much it hurt and that it will hurt even more if he changes his mind and wants to have it removed. He's cool with that for now....if he wants one once he's grown I won't argue with it.
I noticed in the paper today
I noticed in the paper today that a tattoo parlor was rejected by the city council in Scottsdale because it's would be neighbors were worried it would bring "skid row" types around.
The comment made me think about this thread...
The decision is being challenged and defended (as I understand it) by The Goldwater Institute (a conservative thinktank) which is interesting.

I think that child inspired tattoos are wonderful! Most of the ones I have seen are beautiful and mean a lot to the Mom or parents. I have one and love it, three little birds flying together, my kids rub on it all the time and say this is me.. your little bird flying out to the world. It is my reminder to cherish every minute (even when I want to strangle them..lol) because before I know it they will be flying out of the nest.

Hi,
I love tattoos! I have eight myself and plan on getting more. I just had my first baby girl 4 months ago, and my next tattoo will be of her little footprints :)
I also plan on supporting her when and if she decides to get a tattoo.

I am asingle mom of 4 boys, I also have 3 tattoos. One is rose that is not complete. When done my sons initials will be included in it. Another tattoo is a memorial to one of my sons father, who was killed when I was 8 months pregnant. I am a loving mother that coaches my sons sports teams and would do anything for them. I think that it is so narrow minded when you are judged based a decision that is yours and yours alone. I live in an area that is saturated with young, stay at home moms, who believe that their stuff doesn't stink. It is amazing the judging eyes that you can feel on you just because of something that is your own personal decision and quite possibly have some deep meaning to it.
Hi tattooed peeps, I am not
Hi tattooed peeps,
I am not a mom persay, I am a step mom. I have 3 tats & a couple of piercing and I plan to get more tats I am done piercing.... I have a 15 yr old step daughter, whom I have known since she was 4, so I guess technically surrogate would be a better term. Anyway, she has been told that she has to wait till she is 18 to get tattoo as well as pierced. She recently tried to con us into letting her get her belly button pierced, that didn't happen! Like I said not till she is 18. I think tats are an expression of oneself. It is however coming more commonplace to have them finally. Somehow with that commonplace came that they are more expensive now then they were 10 yrs ago. Kudos on your adventure! I don't have a story due to my step daughter living with my husbands parents but if that is a story for you I will sure tell it.
I have 3 wonderful tattoos.
I have 3 wonderful tattoos. and two of them are inspired by my children. I was a 1st time young mommy and when i see my tattoos, it reminds me that i can overcome anything.

I don't mind that tatoos at all, i was actually thinking of getting one myself. however, with having seven kids i dont' think i have enough room on my body!!! LOL
I am a mother of 1 little
I am a mother of 1 little boy and I myself have 6 tattoos. 3 of them I got within the past year. I love all my tattoos and have no regrets. It is my way to express my self. The tattoos I got this year are.
1- Is a heart with 2 flowers to indicate my son and husband.
1- Is the deadliest frog in the world. This is a dedication to my dad who has just passed away from Pancreatic Cancer at the age of 62. My dad was a frog man in the navy. The reason for this particular frog is. . .My dad, mom, sster and brother n law went to peru and actually witnessed this beautiful frog and my dad would always tease me. . .if I ever got a tattoo it would be a frog (this particular one). So I did two weeks before he passed away so he would know that I did this for him.
3rd tattoo this year. Is a portrait of my dad when he was in the navy. It is alot larger then I could ever want. . but to me it is well worth it.
The other three were me being spontaneuos.
You got to love the art. It's an addiction and it's worth it. Being close to 40 I have no regrets!
Hey girl! I have 10 tattoos.
Hey girl!
I have 10 tattoos. My ex's new girlfiend is designing me a half sleeve. My "child inspired" is my son's name in Egyptian Hierglyphs on a cartouche on my left upperarm. I chose this for him because I have always loved archaeology and come to find out he has taken my interest and wants to make it his career. He thinks he is Indiana Jones! Anyhoo, to show my love for him and his interest I chose the cartouche. My next one will be a drawing my 3 year old will do and I will add that next to my older son's tattoo. By the way, I turn 40 in December and have been getting tattoos since I was 18. They are beautiful when done right. We all die eventually anyway who cares if we die with natural skin color or colors of the rainbow! And just for all those conservative naysayers.....I am college educated, my ex is a cop, my son is a 4.0 student with long hair and we don't fit society's visual standard of suburbia. And that is fine with us!
I have 6 tattoos and a 7
I have 6 tattoos and a 7 year old daughter. She LOVES them and even says that she wants some when she grows up. I will take her, we have told her that she needs to think about it very hard before getting one. I have 2 dedicated to her. Angel wings in between my shoulder blades and her name on my Right ring finger. I also have a Dolphin with my mothers name on my right ankle, as a dedication to her. In total I think I have about 30 hours on me. My husband is in the process of getting his left sleeve done.
Tattoos dont make you a horrible person or make the parenting job any different. I love tattoos and I plan on doing more. What about piercings? I have my nose pierced, does that make me a horrible mother too?
I am a 51 year old mom of 2
I am a 51 year old mom of 2 and grandma of 3. I went 2 years ago with my then 30 year old son and had my first tat, it was his first one also. He is now at 3 and I am getting ready for my 2nd. Nothing wrong with tats.
I have to say i'm a 22 year
I have to say i'm a 22 year old mother my son was just born on 10.30.07, before he was born i had 5 tattoos and this weekend i will be getting angle wings and his full name on my back, to every one that does not like tattoo on "MOM'S", that is your own opinon and if you feel that way that is fine but dont hate people because you feel that it is wrong to have tattoos when it is your own opion! People do diffrent things to express their love of something, and if it is going to be a tattoo then so be it!
Hi all, I really have to
Hi all,
I really have to jump in on this thread. I am a mom of two and I do not have a tattoo however I have one all picked out. Seven years ago my son was born at 2 lbs 3oz and his twin sister did not survive.
I have always wanted an angel on some cloud overlooking
my two surviving children. I will get it one day and I don't think
it will affect my ability to be a great mother and I really don't think it is in any way tacky. It is art.

I also am an inked mom. I have 3 young boys and got my first tattoo after my girlfriend was diagnosed with breast cancer. My tattoo is a pink ribbon and I do not regret getting it. I think that tattoo's tell a lot about a person's life and there is nothing wrong or "tacky" about having one.
I am proud to be a tattoo'd

My husband has our son's name down his forearm from elbow to wrist. I have his name underneath his footprint from the day he was born!

I also have a celtic angel in the middle of my back that will have all our childrens names in it once we are done having kids!
Just curious, does anyone or
Just curious, does anyone or would anyone admit to wishing they didn't get tattooed? I am glad that someone is trying to get it regulated so that the shops have to be licensed.. I know a friend who developed an autoimmuned disease after, and the doctors she has went to, contribute it to her tattoo( the poision in the ink leaking into the blood system) and now her 1st child has chronic illness and the doc's contribute it to this, also..I wonder if there is any extensive research being done on this..I'm glad that my deep fear of needles is what kept me from this in my younger years, and it's something I wouldnt consider now..

I'm a tattooed mommy and I
I'm a tattooed mommy and I love my tattoo. It took over 4 years to finally get the tattoo I had decided on. My tattoo is beautiful and it covers my back. I am going to get more tattoos in the near future. Tattoos are beautiful artwork and they allow people to express themselves, just as we express ourselves by the way we dress or act. I love your idea Christine, and I would love to be part of it. I have a 6 year old son and we havent had the tattoo talk yet. He loves putting on fake tattoos and wearing them out in public. His dad is also tattooed with several large tattoos all over his body.

Hi I am a tattoo Mom, I am
Hi I am a tattoo Mom,
I am a mother 6 children, I got my second tattoo on my lower back at age 38 a few years back, at 41 I got a tattoo on my mid back also.. the first one was a small one on my upper left hip. I work a Corporate Job and my tattoos are not exposed whether Im in business suite or dresses or slacks or even jeans on casual days. Now occasionally we do some weekend entertainment/ resorts ETC and when at the pool, in a classy not sleazy suit. I have been approached numerous times.... Gosh your tattoos are very pretty and of course what do they mean.. Then more often then not the statement I am shocked, you sure do not seem like the type of person with Tattoos.. Which more often then not creates a lively discussion, I have had co workers,and clients come up, and attempt to rub of my art thinking they were applied as a joke.. Something I still do not understand.. I do see some folks during these same outings get similar responses and most often from the same people if they are smoking, or even rarer occasion if a woman choses to enjoy a cigar... Oh my husband has one at about age 48 and he was a Corporate VP, retired from that Large World wide Co opened and owned his own company,then sold it to a Worldwide Co.. He currently works for the competitor .
Our Children have done alright.
1. Engineer
2. Federal Position Ice Agent
3. GM of a Family Amusement Park/ Business Degree
4. RN Nursing Student
5. Member of LDS church, going on mission then will pursue the degree he has chosen and given a scholarship for based on his grades and accomplishments through his Church and Eagle Scout activities.
6. The baby has a 4.0 GPA and has been offered a scholarship for a Private Catholic HS in AZ as long as he continues to play and not get injured.. he has also been contacted in letter form from two different Valley Public HS to play for them as a Starting Varsity Player.. Oh by the way last football season he was playing as a 12 year old..
With that said this tattooed Mom and Dad are proud of who we are and who we have raised.
Bless You.

High schools are not suppose
High schools are not suppose to recruit it's against AIA rules. If parents find out he can be band from playing the sport and the coaches that recruit can get into trouble. It's not fair to students who live within the boundaries of the schools.
I suppose this is a subject that should be posted on it's own topic.
