Blessings Farouk-

As a parent I think at age 18 a child is old enough to make their own choices - I put in enough time,teaching and advice that should serve as a guide to making sound decisions - certainly he knows right from wrong,pros & cons and with something like a tattoo there's no right or wrong( imo) it's a matter of personal preference

@kwikphilly Well there's such a lot of faith based ink among Christians now; it certainly has become a personal preference for so many.

(Sounds like you were glad / privately relieved when your son showed you his...)

[farouk]

FYI @DeighAnn So do you think around 18 is the best / most likely age?

Oh absolutely - seeing the cross on his arm said to me that Jesus was the Most Important " Person" in his life- that is all I could ever hope for,for my own son❤️

@kwikphilly I wish in some ways more artistically-inclined young Christians worked in tattoo parlors, don't you?

It can be a joy for older believers to see young believing men and women independently desiring to receive / give ink ups which centre on the Biblical faith.

The Christian fish sign <>< (signifying ICHTHUS) is another simple, conversation-friendly design that is widely sought after.

 I'm sure he's all full up by now.

@other one Some ppl do keep getting more; others just get their first and stop there.

Everyone is different.

Hi @Alive So do you think that the tattoo trend can be positive particularly if it's in faith based / Scripture quote designs?

Not sure how to go with this question...I don't get how this topic has gone on so long.

The Lord has used many things. I recall a time when He used a donkey and gave him speech. Now that would have been something to see.

@Alive Well, it's a topical subject, I guess, anyway. What Willa said typifies how widespread an option -often in faith based designs - it proves to be:

Two favorite granddaughters have them as well as many friends.  

Granddaughters were 18 when they get theirs.

@kwikphilly If it was his first one, seems like its design particularly pleased you as his first inking, if it was....
