A young mother found herself incensed when her seven-year-old daughter returned from a visit to her grandmother's house bearing a real tattoo.
Posting a video on Tiktok, a young mother, who goes by the handle @newskii_soexotic24, recounted how her daughter had phoned her during the visit to her father's side of the family, inquiring about the possibility of getting a tattoo.
Initially believing the child was jesting, the mother had dismissed the idea, but to her astonishment, the seven-year-old proceeded with the plan without her consent.
Expressing her outrage, the pregnant mother remarked, 'Who tattoos a seven-year-old? She will never be allowed to go over there again,'
In the footage, the mother alleges that her ex-partner's 28-year-old sister, the child's aunt, did the artwork, while her grandma was supposed to be looking after her.
She also expressed her concerns about potential health risks associated with the DIY tattoo, stating that she would be furious if her daughter experienced any adverse effects.
The mother also shared in a video the messages in which the grandmother and aunt issued apologies before explaining to the mother that the tattoo, a misshapen heart, had been created using henna.
In response, the disappointed mother wrote, 'That isn't henna; henna only lasts for three weeks.
The tattooing incident reportedly took place in August while the child was visiting her extended family.
Regrettably, the mother lamented her decision to send her daughter away, expressing remorse about the lack of playmates for her at the aunt's house. She concluded with a warning, advising parents to exercise caution when choosing individuals to whom they entrust their children.
Then, the mother proclaimed, 'Newskii will never let Jade go to the aunt's house.'
