[quote=Anonymous][quote]I respect the vehemence of your beliefs. I have equally passionate, informed beliefs about many parenting decisions.[/quote] Well, no, circumcision is not a "parenting" decision. It's a cosmetic decision; cosmetic surgery so that your son looks a certain way which you find appealing. It's an ego decision, so that dad can feel secure about his own cut body. But parenting? Cutting your newborn son's genitals is not about "parenting." Have you considered that no medical organization in the world recommends this surgery? Why do you think that is? [i]Because it has been found to be unnecessary[/i], medically speaking; that the risks do not outweigh any potential (and debatable) benefits. In fact, many pediatric organizations worldwide have stated there are no true medical benefits, and that the practice should be heavily discouraged. [/quote]
