I just feel really at peace that my son has never experienced that, or any, violation....he is at peace.

I think I'm your doppleganger... My name is Sarah, my son is intact, my SIL has a son just over 2 weeks older and he is circed...
That said, SIL is so mainstream, it's weird (you know, like that
one really normal person...) I don't really talk about her circing her son for various reasons, but I'm sure she doesn't feel guilty about it.
People get really ugly sometimes when you tell them a truth they don't want to hear.
