I&#8217;m haunted by something an older friend told me when I first considered getting one: &#8220;It&#8217;s like picking out a T-shirt when you&#8217;re 19 and then having to wear it every day after that.&#8221; In that sense, though, a child&#8217;s loving piece of artwork beautifully interpreted by a tattoo artist might be one of the better options.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s certainly better than some of the line drawings of children&#8217;s actual photos that I see on various mothers here in DC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In theory, I think children&#8217;s artwork is best left for the refrigerator.
