Just on the tattoos point... tattoos are like starting smoking. Not morally wrong, but they have permanent consequences that children are ill-equipped to judge.

(To be honest, I’d go further and claim that a lot of adults don’t grasp the consequences of tattoos either).

Sure - kids shouldn't get tattoos.

But kids also shouldn't drive, and no one is calling for movies with people driving to receive a rating higher than PG ;)

I'm being facetious here, but only a little - the point shouldn't be to eliminate any behavior we don't want kids to emulate from the media they consume. It's simply not possible.
