Hablar de tattoo en esta època que vivimos se considera que el nivel de aceptaciòn es elevada; no es asì. Existen personas que aùn no valida hacer en la piel dibujos que quedaràn hasta siempre. Algunos, quizàs por prisa y no esperar reunir para hacer de calidad, quizàs hoy se arrepienten y por ello quedaron marcados buscando la manera de persuadir a los suyos de no hacerlo.

Me llama la atenciòn esta iniciativa, porque es dedicada a los niños. Es cierto de niños nos dibujàbamos pequeñas cosas en la muñeca de las manos, en los tobillos al menos es mi caso. Recuerdo tener cerca de siete años y tomè un boligrafo de tinta negra para hacerme una flor en la muñeca de la mano izquierda, luego dibujè en el tobillo un circulo, ojos, nariz, boca.

Al ver esto mi padre y madre uyyy que regaño...què què era esooo...porque hacìa eso...por supuesto a buscar la manera de borrarlo. Hago esta pequeña referencia un recuerdo que vino al leer la iniciativa inspirada en los niños porque de verdad que siempre ha existido ese interès quizàs en esos tiempos por diversiòn de dibujarse en la piel. Dìgame cuando nos daba por hacernos los nombres o iniciales propios o de algùn chico de agrado en esos tiempos.

Tambièn existìan las llamadas calcomanìas que venìan en los chicles o helados, bueno eso era una verdadera fiesta colocarlos, si era con agua y el que no sabìa buscaba la forma de hacerlo para no quedarse atràs. Los padres allì los dejaba pasar , era la moda del momento.

Mis hijos pequeños tambièn vivieron la experiencia de los famosos Tattoo comerciales, cosa que a mi esposo no le agradaba. Asumo que todo va cambiando y los estilos de vida tambièn, es algo asì como la adaptaciòn a estas formas de llevar impresiones en la piel. Nunca me tatuè a pesar que a mis 20 años quise hacerlo.

Hace unos dìas, conversaba con un sobris-nieto de 8 años de edad, basquebolista, muy destacado en su equipo. Le pregunto si le gustan los tatuajes y me responde que si, le agrego de una manera muy tranquila debes esperar una edad de 25 años, como para decir algo y me responde de lo màs natural mi papà me dijo que a los 19 años. Lo màs còmico es su abuela(mi hermana) quizàs pensò que iba a satanizar el tema del tatuaje lo que hizo fue mirarme y no dijo nada.

Entonces, asì como piensa su abuela, muchos mantienen ese pensamiento de que no se debe hacer. Ademàs, hay programas dedicados al tema del tatuaje, las tècnicas utilizadas, los instrumentos que se usan,todo lo nuevo en relaciòn al tema, es un arte tomando en cuenta la responsabilidad de quien lo hace.

Talking about tattoos in these times we live in is considered as a high level of acceptance; it is not so. There are people who still don't accept tattoos that will remain on their skin forever. Some, perhaps because they were in a hurry and did not wait to gather to make a quality drawing, perhaps today they regret it and for this reason they are marked and are looking for a way to persuade their own not to do it.

I am struck by this initiative, because it is dedicated to children. It is true that when we were children we used to draw little things on the wrists of our hands, at least in my case, on our ankles. I remember being about seven years old and I took a black ink pen to draw a flower on the wrist of my left hand, then I drew a circle, eyes, nose and mouth on my ankle.

When I saw this my father and mother uyyy what a scolding...what was that...why did I do that...of course I had to look for a way to erase it. I make this small reference to a memory that came when I read the initiative inspired by the children because it is true that there has always been this interest perhaps in those times for fun to draw on the skin. Tell me when we used to draw our own names or initials or those of a child we liked in those days.

There were also the so called stickers that came on chewing gum or ice cream, well that was a real party to put them on, if it was with water and those who didn't know how to do it looked for a way to do it so as not to be left behind. The parents there let them pass, it was the fashion of the moment.

My young children also experienced the famous commercial tattoos, which my husband didn't like. I assume that everything is changing and lifestyles are changing too, it's something like adapting to these ways of carrying impressions on the skin. I never got a tattoo even though I wanted to in my 20s.

A few days ago, I was talking to an 8-year-old great-great-nephew, a basketball player, very prominent in his team. I asked him if he liked tattoos and he said yes, I added in a very calm way that you have to wait until you are 25 years old to say something and he answered me in a very natural way, my father told me that when I was 19 years old. The most funny thing is that his grandmother (my sister) perhaps thought that he was going to demonise the tattoo, she just looked at me and didn't say anything.

So, just like her grandmother, many people think that tattoos should not be done. Besides, there are programmes dedicated to the subject of tattooing, the techniques used, the instruments that are used, everything that is new in relation to the subject, it is an art taking into account the responsibility of the person who does it.
