Should I Circumcise my Child?

Whether or not to circumcise male babies has become a sensitive issue in the U.S. and other Western countries. As late as 1970, over 90% of U.S. boys were circumcised. However, in the past 30 years that percentage has steadily declined to 59.5% due to public outcry. There are strong arguments both for and against circumcision, and the issue remains highly controversial. What do you think?

Think about your son as an young man
I feel uneasy about giving a "recommendation" because I'm not in any way an expert in the field. I will say that in my OPINION, Circumcision should definitely be considered.... read full review
