We arn't talking foot binding or female cicumcision here.

It is nice to be labelled a zealot
I don't think anyone in this thread is planning to prosecute parents who do this, but the point still stands - why would you want to do this? There really aren't any compelling reasons why people have this done.
You say you are glad it was done to you, and glad you did it to your son? Why??
