[quote=Anonymous]We were the opposite (I was somewhat in favor of circumcision; DH was strongly opposed) so we deferred to him. Partly because he's the one with more personal experience (though funnily enough, he is circumcised and has no issue with it from that perspective---just didn't want what he sees as unnecessary surgery) but mostly because he felt far more strongly about opposing it than I felt about supporting it. I will say that I think the look alike argument is silly (DH cannot remember ever comparing with his dad, although they are both circumcised) and I also think the "leave the decision to the kid" argument is silly---read up on adult circumcision and you'll find it's not really a viable option given any more so than reconstructive foreskin surgery is a viable option. Just embrace that you are making a medical decision for your child, and that's okay (and part of your job as a parent---you will have to make many more of these decisions before you're done!)
