Circumcision
We are so thankful you are making time to research circumcision for your family. We will always support your decisions for your family; just as we do with every other choice you make for yourselves and your families, even if it is different then our own. We are open to having conversations regarding this with you and your partner and do not ever want to make you and your families feel uncomfortable talking with us about any decisions you make for your family.
Below is a list of resources to read and watch, full of important information for you. We want to help educate you and your family on the risk/benefit analysis of routine infant circumcision (RIC), which is currently already banned in 7 different (and progressive) countries around the world.
One of the most comprehensive videos to watch to help educate your family on the risk/benefit analysis of circumcision can be found on Google or YouTube and it is called "American Circumcision." This documentary explains the function of male foreskin, the risks and benefits to circumcision, and we find it to be a well versed documentary that shows both sides of this controversial issue.
This is a hard topic in most circles. We find the following evidence based links helpful in making your informed choice.
