Hallo Jessy,

da hast du ein Thema gefunden, das diesem Forum neues Leben einhauchen könnte. Mich interessieren diese Unterschiede von Land zu Land auch sehr.In einem englischsprachigen Forum (http://www.parenthoodweb.com/parent_cfmfiles/comments.cfm/1104) habe ich die Frage auch schon so ähnlich aufgeworfen. Meine Frage und die Antworten, die ich bekommen habe, möchte ich dir nicht vorenthalten (freilich auf englisch):


My name is Petra and I am German. I have just found this board and I am not sure, if the question I ask has already been discussed before, as there are so many postings and I could not possibly read them all.
I am 17 now and I had my ears pierced when I was 6 years old like most of my friends. I think that about 80 % of girls in Germany have their ears pierced and that 6 years is quite a common age for having it done. I have heared that in Spain they pierce the ears when the girls are still babies, only a few days old and that 100 % of the girls are pierced there. And when I read this board (most postings seem to originate in the USA) it looks like it is common to pierce the girls ears there, too, when they are very young.
Are there people from other countries who can tell me, at what age it is normal to pierce a girl's ear in their country?

In Finland I'd say 6-8 is quite common age nowadays. 15 years ago it was more like 10-13. Babies with earrings are rarely seen, mostly foreigners living in Finland. Multiple earrings are very common from age 10 or so.

I'm from Croatia, where I'd say at least 90 percent of all girls (including my daughter, 3 yrs old) have pierced ears. About half have their ears pierced when they're still babies or pre-schoolers, most of the rest around the time they enter school or when they have their first Communion (age 6 or 7). According to my mother, my own ears were pierced by a nurse when I was two days old, before I left the hospital. I've never had any trouble with them while growing up. I like wearing earrings and have always been glad that my parents decided to have my ears pierced young.

I work for Claire's Accessories in a shopping centre in the north of England and I am pregnant at the moment (which is very exciting.)
Every day we seem to be piercing more and more baby girls of three months and above and I am sure that it is becoming more and more popular over here.It is much easier piercing the ears of little babies than it is doing toddlers who seem to wriggle a lot and have trouble keeping still.
All over England parents of little girls are realising that it is best to have their daughters'ears pierced as babies. I don't know if I will be having a little boy or girl but if I have a girl, she will be having her ears pierced at Claire's when she is three months old or soon afterwards.

Hi,
I'm from Hungary, the mother of two girls. Both have been wearing earrings since they were babies, which is pretty common here. About 90 percent of little girls in Hungary will have their ears pierced by the time they're 8-10 -- more than half of them befor they enter kindergarden, the rest around 1st or 2nd grade (earrings as presents for first communions are popular). Until a few years ago, ear piercing tended to be done in doctors' offices, but nowadays it's becoming common to have it done at a jewellery store in the mall. The traditional earrings for little girls often have blue or coral stones; they're sort of like Euro-wires, but the fittings are hinged in the back and the open end of the gold wire is inserted from the back of the earlobe to the front (this makes it easy to put them in right after the ears are pierced with a needle, while the needle is being withdrawn). The end of the wire then hooks into a tiny loop right above the stone of the earring. This makes the earrings very secure on the ears - my daughters both wore their first earrings like this for several years, day and night; they never lost them and never got them caught in clothing. Both my daughters have told me they like wearing earrings and are glad we had their ears pierced when they were too little to be frightened or feel anything. My husband and I are also pleased to see them wearing their earrings. I guess it's a cultural issue for some people, but we're just used to seeing our girls with the little golden earrings in their ears.

That was very interesting about the little euro-wires for little babies and girls in Hungary. Having them pierced as infants significantly alleviates the anxiety and fear of them being done later when peer pressure sets in at ages 3-5. I'm sure the little blue stones and coral earrings were so cute on your daughter's ears and easy to care for as well. Interestingly, it is also common to use little gold hoops or sleepers inserted during the piercing for little baby girls as well. Both make little babies unmistaken for boys with this style of earrings. Using hoops seems to be the norm in England, Spain, and Mexico from other posters to this board.
