Mother slammed after video surfaces of her 9-year-old son getting a tattoo on his arm with her permission

The video was first shared on Facebook three days ago and has already managed to clock more than 1 million views as viewers debated whether the parents put the boy in harm's way
UPDATED SEP 27, 2018

Social media has been up in arms about a viral video that appears to show a 9-year-old boy getting a tattoo done on his arm. The video shows the child sitting inside what is reportedly an Ohio home to get inked, with several other adults also present in the room and approving of the process.

The tattoo — which one can see is an S in the finished pictures — is completely real and that law enforcement was notified of the incident. However, the police are said to be unclear on whether any law has been broken and if they can charge the parents with any crime over the tattoo.
