Whom of the following may you tattoo?

Is pregnant
Is visibly intoxicated
A minor with parental consent
Shows signs of intravenous drug use

The correct answer is: A minor with parental consent

Tattooing a minor with parental consent is permissible within certain jurisdictions, including Oregon, where laws may allow this practice under regulated conditions. The rationale behind this is that when a parent or guardian gives explicit consent, it acknowledges their responsibility and understanding of the decision being made for the minor. It’s important for tattoo artists to ensure proper verification of age and parental consent to uphold ethical and legal standards in their practice. In contrast, tattooing individuals who are pregnant, visibly intoxicated, or showing signs of drug use presents increased risks. Tattoos can involve procedures that may pose health risks, such as complications during pregnancy or reactions exacerbated by intoxication or substance use. These conditions could impair judgment and lead to unsatisfactory outcomes or health complications, highlighting the need for a responsible approach in the tattooing profession.
