You should complain to the organiser hopefully she'll get banned because she shouldn't have brought them, if she's a single parent or doesn't have childcare she should not have been there

As a parent, I’d be so ashamed if my children behaved like this. As a previous event organiser, I would’ve threatened the exhibitor with removal.

So who is safeguarding the kids whilst guardians/parents are presumably tattooing?

I would absolutely report the Artist to the organisers. I’ve had previous issues similar to this at shows but thankfully didn’t happen this weekend (I was the baker!) where they’re leaning all over the guards and then try to barter for freebies! 😤 You have so much more patience than me, I would’ve got ballistic way before then x

Molky - tattoo artist 🖤 :
I had the exact same issue ! I assume it was the same group - they laid on my table. Took all my stickers and took the display dolls off my table !

You need to report this to the convention definitely - this is an adult space not a kids play area, kids should be monitored 100% of the time or they shouldn't be there. If I was you I would have done it as soon as they started bothering me and got their parents kicked.

I would have reported them to the organisers. No-one should have to put up with that, especially at an event that is targeted at 18+

I’m so sorry, you gave these kids too much grace. Should have been reported them to the staff after the 2nd time, as the parent clearly didn’t care.

Why are kids allowed at tattoo conventions when most tattoo spaces are 18+

I know exactly who you’re on about. They genuinely kept hounding me for a pound in exchange for a picture every hour or so, didn’t care at first but I was actively working and they where doing cartwheels and shite down pact lanes 😭😭

kids should NOT be at a tattoo convention anyways, but shame on that particular artist for allowing their children to do that!!!! ur literally AT WORK… ur working?! considering the piss poor response u got too, i’d report them so they either wise up or they don’t come back to be at that convention because that’s a piss take 🤥

to be honest if I was being tattooed & there was kids running around. I would have been pissed off. I am not anti-kids at all & yes there are place they can & should be running around but I am anti kids running around a place that is meant for adults. Tattoo convention is not a place for kids
