Mil tattoo

No. Completely different if you wanted to get that tattoo, but your mother-in-law a little bit weird.

that's what I think! I'm just so over her constantly being weird and a problem
lol

I wouldn't mind if my mil got something for my sons but I would never allow a side profile or name.
I'd be okay with like a hot wheel car or monster truck or their favorite superhero/disney character, or something to do with fishing.
I beef with my mil but she'll drop anything for my kids.

yes I could see a flower or something but her name and side profile absolutely not especially when she's not even apart of her life

If she's not even a part of her life, then me personally, I wouldn't allow any kind of tattoos.
That sounds like she just wants to flunt an act like a good grandma but really isn't one.

this!!! Exactly! She's totally a Facebook grandma and acts like she's part of her life when she's not. It's weird she wants to get a tattoo. I told her no tattoos of her face or name or anything for my daughter

Now that she’s mentioned it I would even be wary if she starts wanting to FT all of a sudden, in case she takes a screenshot and uses that for the tattoo.

These absent grandparents love to lie so much it’s insane 😆

Heck nooooo. I’d go nuts if my mil did that. Just curious if your mil responded back to you?

My MIL got my daughter's first name and middle name tatted on her arm! She brags about how she has my daughter's name tattooed but I don't...I find it odd when she doesn't even have HER OWN KIDS names tatted on her 🤔

exactly! They love to act like they are part of their life's and they aren't. It's crazy

oh I was livid! I had my husband send the text because I wouldn't have been as nice about it

she hasn't replied and we sent it last night

so weird. This is my mil she doesn't have her kids names but wants mine on her? Absolutely not

@Marissa oh I am so glad I am not alone with this mine hasn't done it yet (because they are broke) but I've said for years it's weird she wants my kids names on her but when I asked about getting her own sons (she has 3) names on her she screwed up her face like wtf I feel like she mostly just wants her granddaughters names but knows she can't actually say or do that without looking like an absolute weirdo and cow

I don’t think you are being crazy. I saw my ass when my MIL got my daughter’s names on her wrists on Arabic writing. I find it weird that someone would want a tattoo of them like that I find it so personal and we have a lot of issues with my MIL so it was a crossed boundary.

Definitely sounds weird but also not sure how you'd stop her if she's really determined to do that? I mean obviously you can refuse to give her a picture, but if she has one then you can't physically stop her from getting it tattooed on her body? And presumably she already knows your daughter's name

I just find it creepy. My MIL hasn’t ever actually shown me hers coz she knows I will tell her what I actually think which is that she’s bat shit crazy and she needs to just stop with everything. I have an tattoo for my girls but it is their birth flowers and I gave birth to them

oh totally I can't stop her. But we told her nicely not to so if she does it when we asked her not to we are going no contact

this is literally my mil she doesn't have her sons names on her but wants my daughters who literally doesn't know who she is. Absolutely not

hell no! I worry that's some crap mine will do and I will literally stop talking to her

exactly!!! Totally normal for you to have your daughter's name on you but her. No way

that’s weird to me. especially if she’s not really involved

right?

I find that so weird … my husband and I each have a tattoo that says our son’s first and middle name with his bday in Roman numerals but any other relative id be weirded out. My tattoo is also on the back of my shoulder so it’s hardly even seen .

Just to update everyone it had been 24 hours with no reply so we txt her like hey wanted to make sure you got the message and she just replied yes

Well that’s rude of her

I didn’t know people found this weird. My mom is planning to get a tribute to her grandkids. My aunt has one to hers too. Grandkids are different than their own kids. They love them different. To me, it just seemed like a testament of their love. Ig perspective is everything tho.

I think a tribute is probably different to a full image of their face though. Also like with my MIL the author doesn’t have a great relationship with them so they are not close and so it just feels a bit more weird

Post also mentioned name tattoos. Definitely a different perspective for me to see.

My mom wants baby’s foot prints.
