[quote=Anonymous][quote=jindc][quote=Anonymous]Additionally, making daddy and son match is truly only about the ego of the father and placating his emotional needs.  Children, teenagers, young adults and adults want to pretty much NEVER think about their parents genitals, right?  I mean really, how much do we all daydream about our parents genitals?  [/quote]

While I personally don't give two craps about what people chose to do with this decision, I will say that my DH was NOT circumsized and his father was...and perhaps it's because his father is a complete a-hole, but he was never taught proper care [b](he had a hard time being potty trained because....foreskin)[/b].  I think if you did not grow up with certain things, I could SEE how it could be difficult to 'deal' with the other.

And then my DH was circumsized at age 18 and wished it had been done when he was an infant.  And unless you've had both foreskin and no foreskin, I don't really think you can comment on the issue.  I trust my DH's view, having gone through it (if we have a boy, but we're hoping for a girl!).  People really care far too much here about other people's kids penises.  [/quote]

We did not circ and potty trained our kiddo easily around 2 years old, no issues at all. You don't have to retract or do anything to it at all when they are little, in fact, if you retract it forcefully you can hurt them. Our pediatrician says "wash it like a finger" so that is what we do. A college boyfriend of mine had a "botched" circ and too much skin was removed and he has slight pain during erections. He did not get a say in what his parents did. His parents regret it. I don't get why you are so opposed to hearing other opinions on this. Have you ever watched a circumcision? I think if you do this, you should have to watch one first. [/quote]
