CIRCUMCISING

I don’t think he’ll hate you. I didn’t circumcise my son. It’s not my place to alter his body. And it’s still something they can choose to do as an adult. It’s genital mutilation.

We chose not to. He’s not going to hate you. My midwife told us when we made the decision that these days it really is pretty 50/50 as to whether or not parents choose to have it done, and he can always make that call for himself if he chooses to down the road. It’s a cosmetic procedure. If he wants to look a certain way, that’s fine. But your kid isn’t going to hate you for giving them the opportunity to chose that for themselves

I have a son as well who I didn’t circumcise I was being pressured to do so but I’m glad I didn’t. I don’t think he’ll hate you at all. Coming from a culture that for the most part most men aren’t circumcised they seem to be fine they don’t really even think about it at all. 🙂 Sometimes I worry about infections which is why people say to do it but my husband says you just have to make sure to teach him how to take care hygiene wise.

I choose not to for both my boys, it just seems barbaric.

@Sarah at least if you get it done as an adult, they give you pain meds anesthesia 🥲

Thanks so much
