I guarantee you there are children sticking themselves with needles as a result of this goulish show and tell.
I anxiously await your cited proof of this assertion.
To: mysterio
Do not be anxious. Time will tell....

Amen! I'm already starting to see women who are too old to support their tattoo's anymore.
To: MRMEAN
Not appropriate at school or as part of a lesson plan, IMO.

I told my kids there is a reason that traveling carnivals have closed up over the years...
... you can see the same stuff at the mall for free!

Is this story for real? Teaching 4 year olds about this?
Let me tell you what a tattoo is.
A gamble
It's a pure gamble. When your an adult, sure you can take that gamble. But when your a child you need to learn what making wise decisions that your not going to regret later is all about.
My wife is a model and she has a tattoo. Well, when she got it, she didn't know she was going to model. Now, she regrets the living day lights out of it, because she doesn't get some jobs because of it.
I have a guy who works for me who tattooed his arms up and down when he was a teenager. Now, he has to work out in the heat with longer sleeves than the rest of the guys because of it. He said he didn't think he'd be doing this kind of work when he was young.
It's a gamble and teaching kids this kind of responsibility is ridiculous, much less celebrating it.

my wife noticed a few good looking kids (boys) had started wearing very tight low-cut girl's jeans ...Suffice it to say, but this is the new look throughout the 'cool' set. Say a long, long goodbye to baggy, oversized jeans
was in abercrombie and fitch, express men's and a couple other stores last night. these were all over. a&f went a step further. they have all styles available in "destroyed" basically, they look like a mechanic has been wearing them for the last couple months. torn, holey, greasy, dirty.. some of the fashion mags i've seen go a step further- show the guys with a "tree" (that means no underwear, and pubic hair quite visible above waistline, but shaven off stomach)
