I have two boys… One is… One isn’t… Honestly it’s really just whatever you and the Dad decide to do. 
It’s none of their business
For everyone saying there’s no need you need to do more research. Some men have to have it done later and it’s more painful. Not saying do it now, but get off the high horse and quit judging those of us who take preventative measures.
Not their business, in my opinion.
My son is not circumcised. If you do research, it is a healthy and “natural” way, it’s not dirty (a popular belief). It is actually cleaner for a male to not be circumcised. Many native tribes still today do not circumcise. The choice is yours-not theirs. Personally, I can’t imagine bringing a child into the world and the first they feel is their private parts being mutilated over cultural beliefs-male or female. If God wanted the boy to be circumcised, he would have created them that way in the first place.

Both of my boys were. Best decision ever.
You have to make the best decision for your family, regardless of what other people say.
PERSONALLY, I had my son circumcised. I wouldn’t hesitate to do it again, if I could have anymore kids (my son is 16 and I’ve had a hysterectomy). But that was MY decision and I did what I felt was best.
Do you, honey…and throw a big FU to those who have anything negative to say.

I left it up to my son’s father, he chose to circumcise🤷🏼♀️
It is not a medically necessary procedure and is equal to female genital mutilation in its cruelty. It’s an abhorrent practice performed on a newborn baby under no anestesia. Please don’t do it, your son will thank you.

First it says her family wants her to circumcise then it says she’s not and the family wants her to. Which is it? Is this just made up?
If you ever worked in a nursing home you would understand why… I had to take care of a man that wasn’t and it was so sad… He cried while cleaning him…
All my boys are circ
Um sized I’ve heard its a lot cleaner
I didn’t for my son.
No reason to circumcise. I don’t know of anyone who is and no one ever had a problem. I worked in a hospital and witnessed babies being circumcised. Very traumatic for them. They all screamed and cried. I would not do that to anyone
So much cleaner to have it done
Circumcise for him! He will have to deal with many circumstances that will put him in very bad situations all through childhood. Don’t think of you, think of your child. If you are making this such a hard decision, parenting is going to be very hard for you!

Do what ever YOU feel is right
When I had my son 8 years ago, my husband was dead set on having him circumcised as a newborn. My husband was so adamant about it, because he was not circumcised until he was 4 years old due to a bad skin infection and he still remembers it to this day. He swore our son would never have to go thru what he did. Everyone has their own reasons and stories whether they be good or bad, follow your Mama bear intuition, it will guide you in the right direction.
That’s your business and decision. I chose to all 3 my boys hubby didnt want to. But theres no medical benefit… and it’s purely up to you
In my opinion it’s barbaric to mutilate a Child’s genitalia, there’s absolutely no medical reason why you would need to do so! It’s there for a reason bloody well leave it alone!!!
He can get circumcised later in life, if he chooses to. Don’t make that choice for him, it’s unfair
2 boys not circumcised
That’s a really weird opinion other people have about your kid’s genitals. It’s his body, no one else’s.
I didn’t circumcise, we’re fine. My sister did, and she regrets it.
Don’t do it. It is your baby not theirs.
Its YOUR baby. Noone else’s.
My boys are circumcised and anymore boys I have will be circumcised as well. If somebody specifically asked me for my opinion about it I would highly recommend circumcision and give them my reasons why… With that being said, I would never down somebody for not doing it and I would never try to push it on somebody if they werent interested, that’s just wrong. You’re the mom, you do what you think is best!!

Why is your family even part of this discussion? Do what you think is right.
I have 1 circumcised and 1 uncircumcised. My oldest is not my bio child so I didn’t have that choice with him. He is 5 and uncircumcised. He also had cerebral pause. He had issues using his right side so as of now, he can’t properly clean himself, which may become an issue later in life, but we will address that when it comes. We’ve tried to get medicaid to cover it bc it can become problematic later on in life. But, so far, no issues so they won’t even consider it. We’ve even had specialist agree with us that circumcision is best for him, but they don’t care SMH. Now I chose to circumcise my bio son, and tbh it was traumatic for me. It hurt my soul watching him go through that. I’m glad he was my last. Bc I wouldn’t be able to do it again.
Working at the hospital I saw Lots of boys or men for that matter come to be circumcised. Obviously is not anyone’s decision but yours. Hygiene, teasing at school if other boys notice, religious reasons later in life… many.
It is ultimately your decision. My ex husband had to be circumcised at the age of 21 and it was absolutely awful. We chose to have our son done as a baby and he’s had no issues. I’ve remarried and have another son. We got him done as a baby as well. Not only is is cleaner, they won’t have the same issues my ex did. It is very painful as an adult.
Seriously. Don’t circumcise. It’s horrible. Plus, I know waaay too many men who are so angry that they had no say in the matter. It’s sexually crippling. They can never be whole and intact or feel the way sex is meant to be felt. He can get it done when he’s older if he wants to. There’s no reason for the procedure and intact men are making a huge comeback! I personally prefer intact men myself.

More likely to get infections. The skin hangs over. It stays cleaner when circumcised.
I have three boys and none are circumcised and haven’t had any issues so far oldest is 10 ,4 and 2
I am Latina and in our culture we don’t do it. I did to my older son because his dad is Jews but to my second I didn’t, I wish I didn’t do it to my older son, is their body, I think thats up to them later on to make that decision. I didn’t perforate my daughters ears either my older did at 13 my 5 year old will do it once she is ready. I think we should respect their bodies.

I circumcised my first two sons, and left my third uncut. My 2 boys who I had circumcised had so many issues as infants and toddlers, and I’m crossing my fingers they’ll have no issues when they’re older. My uncut son has had ZERO issues and he’s 6 now.
I won’t argue with anyone on why it is or isn’t a good choice, but I will ALWAYS advise a parent to do what they feel in their heart is right for THEIR child.

The only difference is those who aren’t can get infections sometimes of they aren’t cleaning properly. I have 3 sons , 2 are circumcised and 1 isn’t. We done what his Dr said and taught him how to take care of things and he’s currently 15 yrs old with no issues. Do not let anyone tell you that you have to do it either way. You choose what you think is best for YOUR child.
My son and grandson are not. It’s a preference
If you ask a doctor they will give you many reasons to circumcise. That extra skin carries dirt.
All three of my boys were cut no issues but that was my choice to make not any else’s
My son is 2 uncircumcised and perfectly healthy. My question is why is genital mutilation so normal? When they do the circumcision with most babies pass out from the pain, they dont even numb it. It is cruel and not needed. Teach them to clean it properly and he wont have any issues.
There is a documentary on Prime called American Circumcision. Watch it!

I can only tell my story… my father wasn’t circumcised and in his 50s had allot of trouble and it had to be done which I’m sure you can imagine was really hard at that age and quite painful… my third child was not circumcised either and by age 3 no matter how I kept him clean had allot of issues and the Dr ordered it be done again not pleasant for a 3 yr and traumatizing… some guy’s have no issues ever and some have issues right away or even later in life… but no one should ever tell you what to do with your own child . But I wish I had done it with my son when he was born… you have every right to choose… I would suggest really talking with the pediatrician and looking it up so you can educate yourself on what could go wrong… weigh the pros and the cons. Good luck

When they are young its not an issue but when they are in there olden years and have a harder time preforming basic necessities its a much higher risk of an infection. I know a man who had to get circumcised at 69 not as easy of recovery as it was when they are young. So my boys are circumcised so they won’t have the issue my friends dad did.

Unfortunately my son will probably get circumcised later in his life. I feel so bad for him. Circumcision is a good thing. But if you don’t want to you don’t need to. I am all for it though.
I heard from nurses taking care of men not circumcised it can get infected if not kept clean and dry
As long as you clean it the right way while he’s a baby and teach him how to keep it clean when he starts giving himself a bath/shower there’s absolutely nothing wrong with deciding not to circumcise your child, obviously if he is taught how to clean it as a child, he will do it throughout the rest of his life. Just like taking a shower, there’s literally nothing even up for debate. It’s your child! Everyone talking about infections, yes that is totally possible, only if it’s not cleaned properly. But if a woman don’t wash herself she gets an infection too. That’s just common sense and literally nothing to be concerned about.
Your son, your choice.
I have one circumcised and one not. I haven’t seen anything different yet. My doctor had told me for the boy to match daddy 
. Cleaning isn’t as hard as everyone makes it out to be. Just bathe him like normal and when he gets bigger just gotta pull the skin back a little when washing. No big deal. Don’t let people push you around because they will and it’s easier to tell someone what to do then to deal with one’s own problems. Be strong!

I have 2 circumcised and 1 not.
This question is as old as time. I believe it’s a personal decision. My boy is circumcised. So…personally I feel it’s easier for hygiene. Uncircumcised you simply needed to over stress hygiene. I’ve heard of issues in adulthood that uncircumcised can cause issues. With that being said the baby is numbed and has no memory of it
You are making a mistake! Get that baby circumcised
I had a ex boyfriend in my younger days who Was not circumcised and anytime we tried to have intercourse it pulled on it so hard that he would bleed so he could never actually have full intercourse. I haven’t talked to him in a long time however if he wanted to ever have sex he knew he had to and get it circumcised as an adult and that is excruciating So for just that reason I think it would be beneficial and all the other reasons like hygiene and infections as well
Your son. Your decision.
I personally circumcise. But thats my choice as a mom. Its no ones business what you do with your child. You do you boo… And tell others to mind there own business. My husband made the choice on my boys. I left that up to him. I know several uncircumcised men who wish they were. But i believe that a mother will only do what she thinks is best so dont do something that you dont feel is best

Don’t do it. If you gave birth to a girl would you cut off a part of her body or be told by people that you should?? Genital mutilation of girls is crime but somehow “normal” for boys??? You just spent 9 hard months creating your baby perfectly formed the way they are supposed to be. Why anyone thinks you should cut off a part of your healthy baby’s body is beyond my comprehension!!! 2 intact sons here!!

My hubby isn’t circumcised, my boys aren’t circumcised and either are my brother’s. My step father use to be a wardsman and didn’t want to do that to his sons as he saw what it was like for the babies to get them done and didn’t want his kids to go through that. I honestly think it is totally up to you and hubby if you don’t want to don’t. Of you do do. Don’t let any body tell you differently you are allowed to do whatever the hell you want
Yes you are it will cause problems later
Honestly it is the mother and fathers decision. We got both our boys done since all the boys in both are families are done. I wouldn’t know what to do if it wasn’t done. It is a procedure easier done as a child and if done later on because the boy/man decides then it is way more risky and painful, not to mention they will remember it where as they don’t remember if done as a baby. Really it’s up to the parents though and just do what’s best for y’all and you feel comfortable with.
Non circumcise can cause infections if not cleaned well.

They should be circumcised… I think it be better for them… I heard stuff like infections more etc. It heals quickly and the baby doesn’t remember anyways…
To each their own. There’s pros to it (easier to keep clean and socially more acceptable in the US). Cons, baby is in pain (but that lasts for a couple of days rather than weeks if he decides to do it later in life), more likely for an infection if he doesn’t keep up with keeping it clean.

My teen age boys 17 & almost 19 are questioning why we didn’t have them circumcised… so that’s my story…
No one in my family or husbands is cut.
I have 3 boys, and my husband and his brother, who were all NOT circumcised. As long as you keep them clean when they are little and teach them how to clean it properly when they are older, there’s no reason to circumcise aside from for cosmetic purposes. And besides that, YOU are that child’s parent. If you say no, then that means no.
A friend of mine was 25 was never circumcised and had a lot of problems and was circumcised at 25 and he went through a lot of pain from it. Also it says in the Bible for the males to have that done. My son had it done also. Good luck 
If they don’t pull the foreskin back and wash,it is nasty,stinky, bacteria hiding place. Just gross.

I’m just saying my dick is sensitive circumcised. I imagine with all them other nerves it would be way more sensitive. Sex may be different for both women and men. But if you are gonna do it id say young. Cause nothing will make me cut my dick to this day. I’m glad it happened at a time I can’t remember.
My son was circumcised a day or so after he was born. 3 days home from the hospital and the pedi told me to watch the “bell” they placed around it to heal, if it moves AT ALL to bring him back in. Of course it did, I called the pedi and his on staff doctor told me to just ‘pull it off.’ Drove up to the ER to a doctor my family knew and he said if I had followed that doctors advise I would’ve done irreversible damage. I was Young, & uninformed, but I thought it was for the best. Honestly, probably wouldn’t now. The real question is why does their opinion matter? This is your child. Do the research and if you feel he needs it, then do it. If not, don’t and they can keep their opinions. You are raising YOUR child how you see fit. There is no right or wrong answer, just what you feel is right.
I would definitely if I were you.
Not being circumcised poses a higher risk of infection. It can also cut down on pleasure later in life when he becomes sexually active. But really its your choice. Just do your research and whatever you feel is best for your child is whats best. We circumcised our son. The biggest reason is because when he starts seeing girls they don’t freak out and make him feel uncomfortable because not a lot of men are intact. And it lessens his risk of urinary tract infections through life. But thats what WE felt was best. No decision is the wrong decision.
Forced genital mutilation is wrong. Leave him whole.

Circumcision was invented by religion, if you’re a hygienic mom and take care of his fore skin by just cleaning slightly and NOT PULLING THE SKIN BACK AT ALL he is gonna be fine my son is intact and im having another boy and ill never mutilate my boys just for some old beliefs. No Circumcision is not necessary if the proper hygiene is preformed do no fall into the pressure of others saying “oh they’ll suffer when older” this is not true at all
