What does my tattoo mean to you? please answer!?

After my son was born I got a tattoo representing him which I plan on adding to with each kid I have. I got angel wings with a halo floating above the wings. Then under the wings is his first and middle names written in cursive. I got it on the side of my leg so I could get other names written under it for when I have more kids. I've always been proud of my tattoo. Now, almost 4 years later, someone commented that my tattoo looks like it represents a death. I'm upset now and kinda embarrassed by it cuz I don't want it to look like its in memory of my son! I intended for it to represent my LIVING angel! I'm starting to think I made a bad choice. Did I???

    People open their mouths and say all kinds of things without thinking about what they're saying before they mouth off. I'd just ignore the comment if I were you. You NEVER disrespect someones ink unless there is a real reason for it. That's a thoughtless thing to say. It sounds malicious to me. Consider the source, before you get wrapped around the axle about it. That was just plain rude. No, you didn't make a bad choice. Your kids will be your kids forever.

    Only strangers who don't know your son is alive might think that it represents a death.

    And who cares what strangers think.

    As long as the work is good and you like how it looks then who cares what other people think it represents.

    I don't think you've made a bad choice. I think that sounds lovely. It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. As long as you like it.

  • Its extremely unoriginal....but as long as you like it, it isn't a bad choice. Why care what other people think? Hopefully you didn't do it for other people.
