3rd Trimester

NBR-Odd sis question

Family spat, need some opinions.

My sister told me she is getting a tattoo in two days. It's going to be a family tree tattoo with my mom & dads names, my name & her name under that, and my kids names under that.  A tattoo of my kids names and my name on my sisters back is weird as hell to me!  Am I crazy?  My family thinks it is sweet.

Description of my sister:  she's a dark soul, hypochondriac who always has a new disease, looking for handouts when she doesn't need them, always wearing embarrassing attire...  wears 6 sizes too small (weighs about 300 LBS dresses is very slinky clothing where things hang out), we are family and love each-other, but are certainly not best friends.  She's always wanted children and I have 2, she always tries to pass them off as her own.  My kids love her, but tend to keep a distance, she's either very excited to be around them or says "I need some no kid time now".  And she lives out of town, so rarely gets kid time.

Am I overreaction?  TIA

    I'm with you. That's weird. Hopefully she won't go through with it.
    Yea, I hope.  Can't exactly stop her.  =)

  • Seems odd, but maybe it's her attempt at showing you how much she cares for you and your family. I wouldn't stress over it. She's going to do what she will do anyway it sounds like.
  • Weird but you can't really stop her from doing it.

  • I agree it would be NMS to do this to myself, but it seems to be something she is putting some feeling behind & would make her happy. I have a sister who is a completely different personality than mine & something like this would probably be right up her alley. I'd be ok with it, but then again she doesn't need my permission either. Different people have differnet ways of expressing their feelings. Her choice for this tattoo is her way probably. I'd just take it as what it is & try not to judge her for being different than you.

  • sounds like she is searching...for what I don't know. I have to say it DOES seem like you may be overreacting a bit as well. It's an odd tattoo choice...maybe you could try to gently urge her to take some time and think about it so she doesn't regret it later. Regardless of her decision I would try to see the positive side in it, which is that your sister seems to want to show her love for her family.

  • Thanks for the feed back on this!  Appreciated.

    When she told me she was doing this, I told her it was weird.  I do not hide my feelings from anyone.  After hearing my families feedback, I was second guessing myself.  So I enjoyed reading what you girls had to say.  She is very aware of how feel about her.  After sleeping on it, I realize that there is nothing I can do about it.  It wouldn't have been a big deal if she was a good person, but she's simply not.  Her gross hoe-bag dress style is a side note and a way to paint a picture.  (she also knows how I feel about her style.  I always tell her, I'm going no place with you till you put your boobs into cloths, and toss some leggings on, no one wants to see your cooch, that thong covers up nothing.  lol, just the way it is.)
  • I've had more polite conversations with her about her undress. Believe me, we have no issues with communication. Style is certainly not what makes someone a bad person, it's the immoral judgments they have made and continue to make. My BFF who knows her all too well gasped when I told her about this.
  • This is odd to me but I think she is doing this to show she's proud of her family and loves them. If it bothers you that much I like the suggestion about initials instead but to me it sounds like there is a lot of history between you two. Maybe some therapy could help you two work it out because I have to say I don't know what I would do without my brothers and sisters.
  • I think it's weird, but it could be AMAZING if she did it like this...

    But really, you should have been nicer when posting this question. It could have been...Do you think it would be weird if a sibling tattooed your family tree on their back including your unborn child's name?

    Good point.  well received thats.  I'll keep this in mind.  This forum thing to me is very new, I used this site a ton many years ago, but I'm a bit ruff at it.  
  • You know.  I'm going to see if I can't delete this.  No one needs any negativity on this site.
  • Okay, how do you delete a post?
  • Welp...
    It's her body, and she can tattoo whatever the fuck she wants tattooed.
    Same goes for the clothing she likes to wear.
    And your kids aren't her kids, so she has every right to want her alone time without children around.

    Seriously, give your sister a hug instead of bashing her weight and personal choices online.

    I don't hug bad people who steal from the disabled.  She's a horrible person, and I want no part of myself on her body.  When she comes over, I have to hide things downstairs, and don't allow her upstairs.  She's aware she can't be trusted, because she knows she can't.

    Judge much? That is her style not your's, and her weight has nothing to do with the tattoo she is getting. Flaming her for her weight on here is only going to get you flamed just saying. I wish my siblings would do something cool like that, it is a great way to commemorate your family, if I were your sister I would not talk to you.

    Maybe her sister is disabled, and she wouldn't realize cause she is too busy worrying about her wearing ho-bag clothes and being fat.

  • I see your posting history and it is not like you are new, I'm not sure why you think it is ok to bash on someone.

  • OP, it seems that you are letting your feelings about you sister's lifestyle choices color your reaction. When you step back, it is really cool that she loves her family so much that she wants your names permanently on her. I don't have anyone in my immediate family that would tattoo my name or my DD's name on him or her! And, she did run it past you before doing it. It is not my style (and it doesn't sound like your style either), but I would not stop her from doing it.

     

     

     

  • OP wow seriously get it together.
