[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you also feel is is wrong to drink alcohol while pregnant or nursing because the baby can not consent to getting a buzz or getting drunk? This is an activity that is not legal until the age of 21 and has been proven to cause health issues of all kinds in the human population.[/quote] I think that drinking enough that there's a risk of a permanent change in your child's body (e.g. fetal alcohol syndrome) is wrong, yes. I think it's worse than circumcision because while the effects of circumcision may be controversial they aren't universally held as negative. As for drinking enough to cause temporary changes, I make temporary changes in my child's body all the time. I cut his nails, and brush his hair, and put on sunblock, and feed him healthy food and not so healthy food, and give him medicine. [/quote]
