Tattoos, originally markings only found on warriors and criminals, have always been a topic of controversy. Some love the personal expression tattoos allow them, while others think you should leave the world the same way you came into it. Some just don't care either way.
No matter how you feel about tattoos, body modification of all sorts is now a prominent part of our culture — and it doesn't seem like that's going to change anytime soon.
But what about when you have kids? Should you put the tattoo gun aside and adopt a more conservative look? Or are tattoos a brilliant way to store memories?
This father obviously feels it's the latter!
Meet Keith Anderson, a dad from Peterborough, ON who has gotten a new tattoo every year for the past 10 years. But these aren't just any tattoos! Instead of storing them in scrapbooks or hanging them on the fridge, Keith takes his son's drawings and gets them permanently inked to his skin!
What do you think? Is this a cute way to capture the artistic milestones of your child — or is it just weird?
Please SHARE if you think this dad made an interesting choice!
This is Keith, a dad with an offbeat way of showcasing his son's art.
He started his tattoo project when his son was four years old.
Since then, he's added one new tattoo every year.
“I have had three different artists tattoo these drawings over the years,” Anderson said.
The plan is to keep adding to his doodle tattoos until his son doesn't want to do it anymore.
He says that if he runs out of room on his body, he'll ask his son to draw smaller doodles.
This is his son's depiction of a stained glass window. It's one of Anderson's favorite pieces.
Recently, Anderson even let his son do some tattooing himself! Would you let your child do this?
Please SHARE if you think think anyone can be a father, but it takes a real man to be a Daddy!
