Although i do feel this procedure is a form of mulilation.... I'm personally certainly not saying that parents who still choose to get the procedure performed aren't good parents or anything...
because after all, in parenting, there is no right or wrong really... it's what each family feels is correct for their child, based on their own upbringing and personal perspective on the world.
And although i don't agree with the procedure and i wouldn't have it done if i had a son, that would be what *I* thought was best for my son...
Personally, I don't think It's my place to say what you or any other mom or dad should or should not do with their child, because it is after all *your* child and you are the one responsible for making the choices you feel are best at the given time.
