[quote=Anonymous]My boys are 2 and 4. We are Catholic, so having it done had no religious significance. However, it was "cultural" - all the boys in the family have it done, so DH couldn't imagine our sons not having it done. The health benefits are negligible. That said, the pain is very temporary, and it does not interfere with bonding or anything else. Newborns are subject to a lot of pain - from lots of things. Goop in their eyes once they are born. Vitamin shot immediately after birth. Blood tests. I was present for the circumsions of our sons. Yes, its horrible. Then it's over. It took longer for them to "milk" blood from our sons' feet to test for various metabolic disporders that they do for every newborn than the circumcision took. Really, its your choice. [/quote]
