Today, is the day I got my first tattoo. It's also the day where my mom screamed at me, gave me the silent treatment, and kicked me out of the house. Apparently I’m not considered her daughter anymore, because my skin is “damaged” now. I don’t have other family anywhere, and I have nowhere to go. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got my first tattoo. I felt good about it, until I told my mom, who was not happy. She responded by taking me out of her car insurance policy, family plan, and charging me for rent every month since I, "wanna be all grown up now.” FML
Today, I got a tattoo. My mom got upset and threw a bitch fit about how my body "is a temple and it belongs to God.” I told her, “My body, my choice.” She responded with, “Oh really? Well, my house, my choice who lives here. Pack your shit and get the fuck out.” I’m currently in my car with nowhere to go. FML
Today, I decided it was a good day to get my first tattoo since turning 18. Today, my parents decided it was a good day to make me homeless, because they are religious nutjobs that still live in the 19th century. Oh, and they’re no longer paying for my tuition. FML
Today, I learned that ever since I got a tattoo, my mother had edited her will, said I was no longer her daughter, and took me out of it. While my sister got a payout, I basically missed out all because of a small tattoo of a flower on my ankle. I’m a single struggling starving mom. She knew this. FML
Today, my mother threatened to disown me if I didn't break up with my tattooed girlfriend. FML
Today, my mom tried to burn my arm with a hot spatula, all because I got a tattoo against her wishes. FML
Today, my mom found out that I got a tattoo two years ago. She got mad and spanked me. I'm 33 years-old. FML
Today, my little brother got a tattoo honoring our mom who abused us. The only reason I stayed was to protect him. I feel like I wasted my life. FML
Today, my dad found out I got a tattoo behind his back and is really really upset. When I got home from work my car wasn't in the driveway. When I asked my dad where it was, he replied "you'll get it back when your tattoo comes off." FML
Today, it's my birthday. My dad was supposed to take me to get a tattoo, but instead he went to the bar, got drunk, and told me how I was the biggest mistake he and my mom have ever made. FML

Go to the police. If you're a minor, it's child abandonment. If you're of age, it's an illegal eviction.

Well im assuming you are over 18 and it's her house. she should at least of given you 2 weeks to a month to get out. On that same note your an adult and know actions have consequences. You knew how your mom would react and you made your decision. I considered you being a minor but then you would have had to forge her signature which would hurt your case more.

You must have some friends.

Her house her rules. I know she over exaggerated and the situation really sucks. However if you knew this was something she get strongly about maybe you should have waited until you were in your own place. A tattoo is not more important than a place to sleep.

If your rules are more important than your child, your values are really ****** up.

Why should you have to get her permission to get a tattoo when it's YOUR life? Because it's HER house!

Depends on the age.

On the age of the house? Or the mom?

Feels like she was always going to kick you out and this was just an excuse.

Why does your mother care so much about your skin? Does she plan to use it for a lampshade or something?

Her house, her rules. How old are you? If you're still living with your parents, it sounds like you're too young to get a tattoo. If you're a legal adult, she really has no say, but you probably shouldn't have done that until you had somewhere else to go if you knew this was how she'd react.

Bad decision number what? Everything you do has consequences. Thinking ahead will often lead to better choices. You knew, I think, going in, what your mom would say, you just didn't care and now..... Pretty good lesson.
