to be pissed off with dh over a temporary tattoo

[K8eee]

He's just come back in with dd who is not even 15 months old and he's put a bloody temporary tattoo on her arm it's safe to say I'm so pissed off! aibu to be like this? I've already googled how to removed them safely and it looks like baby oil is the best way, any other suggestions welcomed!

Yabvu!... My 18 month old had one last month at a bigger kids birthday party. And yes, it was a pirate one! Shock horror that it wasnt a pretty kitten or flowers what difference does it make what image it is as long as its not offensive?
Btw... It came off in the bath that night, no fuss.
It didnt hurt going on, it didnt hurt coming off..... Nothing like ear piercing!

Oh ffs sake calm down. My dds used to be covered with these , includingnon their faces they loved them

fingernails, that should say, not her whole fingers, that would be really stupid

@ TiggyD

Is it because it's a wee bit chavvy?

He might buy her a flowery headband and a can of red bull next

It's too late. She ruined. Have another one and move on.

Dh bought lots of moustache tattoos off the web and we used to stick them on ds2 when he was a baby.

Added Class to every family occasion.

You need a grip OP. They are not harmful. They come off with soap and warm water. I've just had to use the same to get pen off my DD.

And my mind boggles at it being compared to ear piercing and child abuse.

TBH, it sounds like you're a bit of a snob and simply think it's too chavvy.

Here op...

I can understand why you are upset, DS is two and I wouldn't want him having one, mostly because he has very sensitive skin but also because I think they look tacky on small children. In that respect, YaNBU. That said, you lost me when you compared it to ear piercing, which is inflicting pain onto your small baby.

Roll your eyes at him, tell him he's an idiot, and clean it off. Done.

pmsl YABU op and slightly hysterical

"Dh bought lots of moustache tattoos off the web and we used to stick them on ds2 when he was a baby."

Genius! Wish we'd thought of that.

DH did this to our DD around the same age. She loved it and kept touching it and smiling. It was a tattoo of a puppy or a kitten, I can't remember which because it wasn't a big deal.

Yabvu and hope you apologize to your dh for being a hysterical drama queen. What makes you think you are the one that decides what to do with your dd. seriously dial down the drama or you will create issues for yourself and your dd.

YAB a bit U.

I wouldn't want my toddler to have one though, so I do understand. They look so tacky and chavvy - so I do see how you can draw comparison with baby ear piercing. But it will wash off, so probably not worth arguing with DH over.

I think it's a similar thing of getting your babies ears pierced and whether it's class as abuse or not

It is nothing at all like ear piercing. And abuse? It is a temporary tattoo - it's similar to face paint in my eyes.
I wouldn't be happy myself if DP did this to our baby, I'd think 'wtf are you doing' but I wouldn't be angry.
It'll wash off and your DD won't even realise it.

I used to put them on dd and coloured hairspray, don't see the harm at all.

Yabu. It's too small to get worked up about, op. Just let it go.

Those moustache ones sound awesome.
DS1 would love them. Or minion ones for Christmas.

YABU

To be fair I'm not a fan of them but my girls like them sometimes, like yesterday at the school summer fair, they were doing glitter tattoos and they had one, just a bit of innocent fun, a bit of baby oil and it's gone, not the end of the world!

Massive overreaction.

It is NOTHING like getting ears pierced either. It doesn't hurt, it will come off and it won't cause weeks of faffing about and potential pain keeping it clean.

Good god is this for real.

It's a bit of harmless fun. Dd and her friends put them on themselves. they have people doing them.at school fetes.

You over reacted big time.

Massive over reaction. And to even think a temp tattoo is in any way abuse makes me very angry.

If I express what I really think this post will get deleted.

Op check yourself!
