As I have watched the world cup, been distracted by the fact that every footballer seems to have had has one arm scribbled all over by one of my kids.

Not really seen it it any other sport. Any one know why ?

Even the Koreans!

Exactly, surely it is just a reflection of society - ink is much more prevalent among the younger generation

Just like having no taste, respect or moral fibre. There are a few shining examples but not many.

One thing for sure is one day, it may be 40 years in the future, they will look in a mirror and think " Why the f** did I do that?"

For the ordinary bloke on the street - you really think it would worsen their job prospects/earnings?

I don’t think that is as likely as it was say 10 years ago

If it's not causing you any direct issue why do you care? If people want tattoos or different hair cuts, fine by me. Never understand why people are so quick to have a pop at others when it's doing no harm to anyone else.
