This is like the Cash song Boy Named Sue. Sure, at first glance, it looks like a really sick, twisted thing to do to kids. But think for a moment—Who the fuck is gonna mess with a 13 year old that was badass enough to sit through a branding??

yea that brand / scab looks kinda gross... would not look again

this is pretty sick imo... the kids will regret getting this tatoo for sure.

Youngest child:
(is having sex for his first time)
girlfriend: "what the fuck is that thing on your chest?"
kid: "uhh... it stands for... supreme kawk?"

could only lead to akwardness...

15-year old son:
(working out in the gym)
maybe he could bullshit something about a super coincidental scar, but most likely will get shitted too.

18-year old daughter: its sure as hell gonna be unsightly to wear any kind of pants other than jeans and the like cause there are huge ass scabs on your legs

unless those scabs in the picture are only temporary... in which case it might not be so bad :0

They could probably have some sort of plastic surgery to repair the skin, but this is still just so sickening. :\

I'd want to distance myself from that last name as much as possible; not make my children have it on their body too.

After the thread where a guy had a knife through his head and the japanese kannibal who had eaten a student and now lives free... this doesn't even seem like news. It's still really odd.

It ends up just looking like pink, slightly raised skin. The Scabs obviously do go away. I know this because 3 of my friends decided to get brands during frosh week. One got a J, for the initial of his name, one got the uppercase greek letter sigma (like the one that represents sum in math), and i forget what the other got (I never saw it).

In case you were wondering, they were all super wasted when it was done. But only so it didn't hurt as much, they all had the idea before.

It's a shame that the article doesn't describe much of the psychology behind it all.

I personally would find it incredibly interresting to find out the reasoning that the kids have behind being proud of being branded. And what made the father think branding them was a good idea.

I'm sure the same people in this thread who are against this would at the same time fiercely protect the right of any person to mark their child for life by having them circumcised.
I also find this thread ironic considering the amount of tattoos, scarifications and other types of bodymodifications every other teenager have got on their bodies today.

Then again, aren't those pretty much all in the hands of the person themselves? And I believe that here in the states, you must be 18 to get a tattoo of any sort. I don't have any myself, so I don't know for sure (or even if it's a state-to-state thing).

I know that my mom was good friends with her tattoo artist, and she got me free piercings whenever I went with her. Completely off topic, but whateva :p

i want to feel bad for the kids, but this feeling is a little mitigated by the fact that they were proud of the brands...
What did that father do to his kids to make them think that it was okay?

The kids are probably down with it because only badasses can handle being branded. Well, at least the boys.
