My 14 year old son has just called me from boarding school asking if he can have this done for a number of reasons. We too are very open parents so I was surprised when he didn't want to talk to his father about it (who has been circumcised) and said he'd been wanting it done for a few years now. My husband is more concerned about it than me. I am feeling better just reading your post now. What was the process you went through to make it happen? I'm thinking I will need to find an approachable & sensitive doctor who will listen & talk to him about all the pros & cons (his need for privacy is also very intense - he made me swear not to tell his siblings or anyone other than his father). Did you have trouble finding a doctor?

The best time to have your son's circumcision is when he's a baby. It heals faster, he won't remember it, there's no embarrassment, and it's easier for him to manage during infancy. I was circumcised at birth because my dad had to get it done as an adult and my mom says he wanted me to look like him. I'm glad I never have to make that decision. I have never had to deal with foreskin problems, felt insecure with girls that prefer circumcised, it looks better than an elephant trunk, and there are the benefits of being at lower risk of UTIs and STDs.

This is disgusting, do not cut your childs penis for some whim, that stays with him forever.

All very true, speaking from personal experience. If anyone wants their boy circumcised, have it done, and if anyone has a problem with it, tell them it's none of their business, because it IS none of their business.

I was circumcised at 20 and never regretted it. Being uncut sucks, there is no loss at all. I now have three son's and all three (oldest is 8) are circumcised.

"Any girl who says she doesn't like boys with a natural penis is a bimbo..."
Then most girls in the US are bimbos.

You have made an awful mistake, without the foreskin you child will suffer with a lack of membrame around the glans and cause indents on the glans, making it impossible to recreate the membrane for the proctection. all you can do now is live with regret or give money to a service to restore the foreskin.

Circumcision of baby's is wrong and a form of mutalation. Let the kid decide on his own I was circumcised 2 years ago when I was 44, I can hardly tolerate the way it feels now, Sex is not good, I would give $10,000 to have my skin back. I'm trying to regrow my foreskin but it is a slow process.

"I'm glad you're happy with the outcome, but in Europe, there's no way you'd have been circumcised within one week of being seen by a GP. Circumcision is treated as a last resort and is rarely actually necessary. "
The main reason for this, and the reason why circumcision isn't more common in Europe in general is because European countries' government run medical systems don't want to pay for cicumcision

Getting your urethra split to the coronal ridge is no big deal. It just means you can't pee quite as far.

No no no. What about the child? I'm fairly sure it's his business! It's not "Do these parents want their son circumcised?" it's "does this boy want to be circumcised?" It's NOBODY else's choice but his.

I think cutting the urethra like that is the work of a sick sadistic cutter who wants to say "I was here". What logical reason is there for doing that? I'm listening!!!!
