You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
It's already an offence to give someone who is under 18 a tattoo. We're therefore not sure what further action you'd like the Government and Parliament to take.
You can view the Tattooing of Minors Act 1969 here: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1969/24
It isn't illegal to give a piercing to an under 18 year old. You could start a new petition asking for the Government and Parliament to make it illegal, if that's what you want to happen.
