What a great article. I did not circumcise my son for this exact reason. Why would anyone subject pain to their newborn baby? I would never forgive myself. My son is 8 and is just fine. He knows that we left him the way God created him..... why would we mess with his creation?
This is a great article. The next time someone criticizes me for not circumcising my son I should show them your article. My son is 13 months old and I do not regret my decision of not circumcising him.
How wonderful to see an article that is not pro-circumcision!! Every male in both mine and my husband's family from my 90 year old grandfather to my 8 year old son is uncircumcised, and none have ever had any problems! Thanks so much for this great article!!
