A type of temporary parent appointed during infancy. This custom is found throughout Kyushu. In Enoshima, Kisato-cho, Saikai City, Nagasaki Prefecture, an obi parent is appointed at the "obi-toki celebration" when a girl turns three years old. The obi-toki celebration celebrates the moment when the child stops wearing the obi strings attached to the kimono and starts tying the kimono with an obi, and the obi parent presents the obi with a prayer for the child's safe growth. In Kimotsuki District, Kagoshima Prefecture, it is decided that the obi parent will be an aunt.

幼年時にたてる仮の親の一種。この風習は九州各地に分布する。長崎県西海(さいかい)市崎戸(きさと)町江ノ島では、女の子が3歳の「帯解(おびとき)祝い」に帯親をたてる。帯解祝いとは着物の付け紐(ひも)をやめて帯で結ぶようにすることを祝うもので、帯親はその帯を贈って幼児の無事の成長を祈願する。鹿児島県肝属(きもつき)郡では、帯親には叔母がなると決められている。 [竹田 旦] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
