| When we started the website and the discussion forums in the late nineties, The Case Against Circumcision (TCAC) was intended to be a place where new parents could learn about these personal and political issues and be assisted in making their decision about circumcision. In my own experience as an advocate I've learned that I have to take a mother where she is and appreciate that while I may lead her to what I believe to be the right decision, she has to make it herself. This is the true nature of informed consent. With this in mind, we want to keep TCAC for the new parents and we want it to be a place where they feel safe to have the space they need to make this informed decision. Over time, TCAC has understandably become more of a conversation among intactivists and as such, has become intimidating for parents who are new to the politics of circumcision. For this reason, we are refining the guidelines for TCAC so that it is again more of a place for new parents. This is why we have been moderating the forum in a different way recently and why we will continue to do so. We want TCAC to be a welcoming forum of inquiry for new parents looking into the issue of routine medical circumcision. Thank you for your understanding. |
