Didn’t have my three boys circumcised, now 9,8&5. Have been wholeheartedly congratulated by each of the two regular pediatricians we have used, one is Jewish.

Had heard it is actually somewhat of a trauma and that the health benefits were debatable(negligible if any). Doubt they will be teased, or if so, that it would bother them. My own situation with regards to topic had no weight whatsoever, nor did any religious concerns.[/quote]

And as a parent, I congratulate you as well! I think as a parent, it’s the only thing I would have done differently.

Back when I was younger, it was much more common to be circumcised. I remember as a younger guy and watching pornos…. I mean all the guys were circumcised….it was very strange to see someone that was not.

But I think these days it’s more common and normal not to be circumcised.

I congratulate any parent that decides not to have their kid circumcised.

[quote=Blogstar]My kid aced the 3rd grade CST and reads Hugo Cabret in Spanish and Lord of the Rings in English. This is also because of our decision on circumcision.[/quote]

I’m glad you didn’t get your sons circumcised but I’m not sure you can make the connection they are doing so well because they didn’t have it done. After all, I got circumcised and I did very well. 🙂
