Creator's Key Takeaways
Carnival has just made a change. We also have some parents upset that their kid got kicked out of an adults-only place.
They've carved out a dedicated tattoo shop parlor on the Margaritaville at Sea Islander where you can go and get a tattoo.
I'm not anti-kid, but I am pro-rules. And if the rules say 18 and older and you're not that, that's all I got.
