[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two boys ages 13 and 11, both circ’d. I’m a former RN and worked with a lot of HIV patients. It doesn’t matter if HIV is prevalent in the region, it matters if it’s prevalent in the person one has second with. I believed in the science - health related benefits of reducing likelihood of disease transmission - and I also recall working with pediatric patients who had multi-day hospital stays for circumcision at an older (pre-teen/early teen age). The “uncut” son of anti-circ parents we know was recently circumcised at age 11. He was out of school for about a week and out of sports for something like 2-3 weeks while he recovered. It was apparently a very unpleasant (and humiliating) experience for him. [/quote] We circumcised after talking to an RN friend of ours. She said she'd care for many boys that had to have it done because of infections and other problems, and said every she now recommended circumcision for everyone.[/quote]
