spider tattoo on his forehead

He is seventeen
Wears his hair long, in a ponytail, it does not look clean.
There are piercings in his lip and his ears.
He wears a spider tattoo on his forehead.
His mother is horrified.
His father is having a fit.
Both grandmothers laugh at them.
Loving their grandson no matter how he looks.

This had such a beautiful ending and it totally blindsided me. The way it ended with unconditional love really moved my soul.
