Today, I surprised my 7 and 1.5 year old girls with a princess dinner. I quickly realized it was a scam when the "princesses" arrived looking more suited to a bachelor party. I was able to quickly get the girls out, but have spent the evening explaining why Pocahontas was heavily tattooed. FML

It was advertised as an event for children. The guy running the event refused to pay for the professional princesses when they showed up, ready to perform. I think he intended on scamming everyone since he had the other slutty costumes on hand. The whole thing was a disaster! Police were called, parents were screaming obscenities and threats, etc. My local news station just finished running the story.

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

At least you wont have to worry about the 1.5 year old. Since long-term memory doesnt develop until around the age of 3. Yay!

It isn't a scam, it's just not a kids party. You really should have looked into it to make sure that it wasn't an adult party before booking it.

Perhaps use this to explain to your kids that not all women need to look like 'princesses.' Tell them it's called 'having a bit of individuality.' I have tattoos, and I find what you've just said slightly sexist.

She paid for DISNEY princesses. Individuality is one thing, but when you are paid to provide a specific character, they need to look like the character. I feel bad for the girls, it doesn't seem like they were given enough time at all or good costumes. You can have a tattoo but if you are dressing up as a character without one for a child's birthday party, you need to cover them up. Which is simple, you can find a tutorial for it easily.

I don't think the point was the tattoos themselves. I think the point was the people weren't really dressed for the occasion.

It wasn't necessarily a scam. It just wasn't a service for the type of parties that you thought it was. Lol.
