<p>having watched both tatoo parlor reality shows, those guys that do well are artists- they understand color, and shading, and proportion, etc, and one kid had to tatoo himself as part of the internship thing at the shop…kind of weird</p>
<p>I think a compromise is that she finish HS, no need to graduate early, and then she can apply…if she is unwilling to do that…</p>
<p>and how is she paying for tat school?</p>
<p>in the end it is her decision, but once she goes there, if she has no talent, she will be kind of stuck</p>
<p>can she draw, has she studied art, etc…if those have been her passions for awhile, then okay, but if it is because the BF is pushing it, well, she is going to do what she is going to do</p>
<p>you can say you will house and feed her while she is in school and WORKING, not just hanging out…that is what I would do…if she was working fulltime and really trying, then cool, but if she isn’t and isn’t even trying to, well, she could try it on her own</p>
