My 7 year old has a tattoo.

Oh how I wish this was a bid to get your attention.

from what I can gather, his dad was having a tattoo done at his own flat, and Ds1 said "What does that feel like?" and before anyone knew what was going to happen, he -who is about to die--

the tattooist jabbed Ds1's hand with the tattoo gun that was being used on ds1's dad.

So.

It's the tiniest dot, nobody told me about it, and it was 5 months ago.

I now have to take my 7 year old for a fucking hiv and hep b test.

I have a police investigation going on (but all I know is that the bloke's name is 'tattoo tony', he has relatives on the isle of wight and stars tattooes on his head/face)

And I have barred the kids from visiting their dad. Overnights will now take place here, at my huge inconvenience. And my friends and family will be dropping in to my house on these occasions, unannounced.

I was swollen with rage the day I found out. My boyfriend is taking the day off work next week and travelling 40 iles to my house to take ds1 in for his bloods, so I don't upset him with my hysteria.

I don't know what to think and I don't know what to do. My child has been assaulted and I was not informed.

Just read this and am in complete shock. What a twat!

I really hope this Tony gets his comeuppance. Your poor ds.

I do believe there is another way to get rid of tattoos now? Isn't there an injection that you can have which brings the dye to the surface?

But as you say, colditz, you don't want to put him through any more pain.

Hope it all works out for you.

Update.

Twattoo Tony is in town. MY town. At one point yesterday, I was 300m away from the cunt (but on the phone to the police!).

Ex needs to give a statement to the police as they cannot proceed without it, and as it is Common Assault, if it falls outside six months after the event, it will not go through at all. He says he will go down today, but I privately think he is frightened of Twattoo Tony and any repercussions this may have upon him.

This twat assaulted exp's child and groped exp's girlfriend. WHY does exp have to be such a frickin chicken?

Blimey I hope exp finds a pair and goes down to police station. Thanks for the update just hope something gets done?

SparkleRainbow · 29/11/2010 13:53

Keeping my fingers crossed for you, how on earth did you stop yourself from confronting him!

colditz · 29/11/2010 17:21

My enormous boyfriend told me that if I went anywhere near where he was, I would be held in a loving half nelson for the rest of the day, because no mummy needs to go to jail for assault.

Good luck Colditz, I hope XP does the decent thing, and soon.

The twat deserves what's coming. (Twunty Tone btw)

ItalianLady · 29/11/2010 17:58

Your boyfriend is right. I would be tempted to tell your ex if he doesn't do his statement today/tomorrow he won't see his child/or any other consequence you think would work.

grapeandlemon · 29/11/2010 18:22

What is WRONG with him Shock

Your poor son Sad

colditz · 29/11/2010 22:26

he's done his statement.

Just waiting to find out now.

Words fail me. What a fucker Tattoo Tony is.

SantasNutellaFairy · 29/11/2010 22:49

Fuck me Colditz! I have only just seen this!

Am gobsmacked!

DioneTheDiabolist · 29/11/2010 23:04

Jesus Colditz, just read this. You are completely righteous in your anger at twatootony and your Ex. What a pair of (no word is good/bad enough to describe them).

DioneTheDiabolist · 29/11/2010 23:04

BTW, I would be seriously punishing Ex for this.

Curiousmama · 30/11/2010 08:34

Thank God for that!

FakePlasticTrees · 30/11/2010 08:42

I'd say only supervised access from now on. This isn't about punishing your ex, but about protecting your DCs. He's proved he's incapable of protecting them, so you have ensure there's someone else around who is responsible for protecting them.

TheProvincialLady · 30/11/2010 08:44

Just marking my place.

TheGrumpalo · 30/11/2010 08:49

Bloody hell! Can't believe this Colditz Shock Hope they get him. I think you're right to restrict access at the moment. Your ex sounds like a complete twat and you need to make sure your children are safe.

Wottknottandmincepies · 30/11/2010 09:01

Stunned and sorry to hear this. colditz I think your BF sounds marvelous FWIW.

Mummy2Bookie · 09/12/2010 20:45

Shit. I just came across this. Hope your ds is okay. Has anything else happened with tattoo Tony?

colditz · 15/12/2010 20:54

Apparently an arrest was made last week, but nothing has happened (I haven't been contacted since)

Oh, and exP has stated that he's no longer going to be coming to my house for contact, so I have to a) explain to my children about 'where is my dad, why doesn't he come to see us any more, why don't we go to his?" and
b) explain to my boss why I cannot fulfil my contract any more.

I couldn't have put it any better myself!

How are you and your dc doing? I have been worrying about you for a while.

colditz · 16/12/2010 20:29

og goodness, don't worry about me. I'm fine.

I got a call from the police this morning. They are sending a child protection officer to talk to ds1 about the incident, because, of course, twattoo tony has denied everything (they DID interview him)

OP posts:
SparkleRainbow · 17/12/2010 12:47

Did they interview your ex, so he can verify what happened? This is looking suspiciously like they might do nothing about this...... Angry

Caravanoflove · 07/03/2015 16:54

For some reason this thread has appeared on my phone. I know it's an old thread but having just read it I need to know if Tattoo Tony ever got his cumuppence?
