I used to argue but now I ignore it. I don’t have to stand up for myself and it’s not worth my energy.
Claire, from Lincolnshire in the UK, said she used to find the comments frustrating but now pays no attention to them because she “knows she’s a good mum”.
“I have a successful business and I’m in a secure relationship – there’s nothing weird about my life and I love nothing more than a night out in my pajamas!” she added.
The mother-of-four added that she got her first tattoo when she was 15, paying just £10 ($19) to get a little fairy on her wrist.

This is one of her only regrets.
“I was so young, I don’t recommend getting one at this age – I loved it then, but it’s covered now!” She said.
Claire now has 60 percent of her body covered in tattoos, spending £8,000 ($15,107) in total, despite many tattoos being done for free.
After she was a teen, she gradually built it up including a chest tattoo of ‘lots of stars’ and a mermaid tattoo on her neck when she was 18.
While working in the offices after school, she had to be covered up – in turtlenecks and scarves even in the summer heat.
But at the age of 25, Claire was taken to the hospital with breathing problems, where they discovered a tumor in her lung.
“It turned out to be benign but I hadn’t known it for some time, and it was terrifying,” she said.
“It made me realize we don’t know how long we’ve been here, and then I decided to get a face tattoo,” she said.
She explained that despite being “heavily tattooed,” she was afraid of getting ink on her face, as she thought she would be judged.
However, after eight years she doesn’t care, and now with 14 tattoos on her face.
“It was so empowering — I was finally able to be myself and it was so liberating,” she added.
Her first face tattoo was “Queen” written across her eyebrows.
Although she feels more free-spirited, she says the “judgment is really lifted” with a full face by saying she gets “ten times more looks.” Pictured during pregnancy

“The last thing I want is for my parenting to be judged. She added that getting tattoos does not affect who I am as a mother at all.
