I guess henna wasn't an option.

Mother gives 11-year-old daughter a tattoo
by ASSOCIATED PRESS
HAVELOCK — A heavily tattooed mother is in trouble with the law after giving her 11-year-old daughter a tattoo.
WCTI reports (http://bit.ly/PYHIZD ) 30-year-old Odessa Clay says she didn't know that tattooing a minor is illegal even with a parent's permission. Clay gave her daughter a small, heart-shaped tattoo near her right shoulder. She says the girl asked for the tattoo.
Havelock Police charged Clay with tattooing a person under 18.
Clay now lives near Grantsboro in Pamlico County.
Clay used her own tools and said she numbed her daughter's arm. She says she tattooed the outline of a heart and didn't fill in the entire shape.
The mother says she believes an ex in-law reported the tattoo to retaliate against her.
Clay is due in court on the tattooing charge next month.
