This one is just soooo sad
http://www.circumcisionquotes.com/avery.html Poor mama and poor little boy!! Thank goodness our ped is intact-friendly and would never suggest circing!
I still feel guilty just knowing that I hadnt bothered to research this decision at all and that I would have let it happen. I would have been in the room though and I am sure that after actually seeing it done I A) never would have gotten it done again and B) would have felt extreme guilt for the rest of my life. It just shows though how ignorant people can be and how this really needs to be talked about. People dont like to think about it, but the fact is that no one-NO ONE-said a word about circumcision to me until I was in LABOR! I hadnt thought about it because no one had even mentioned it. If I had thought about it, I would have researched, just like every other decision I made. Too bad I hadnt been lucky enough to have one of the circ articles before he was born (I read mothering through the last half of my pregnancy). I just thank god that medicaid doesnt cover this awful procedure in our state! Thank you thank you thank you!
