If you are in the anti-circ crowd, and are an American, it's actually quite the opposite. If you want things to change in favor of your point of view, YOU need to make a good argument against it, becuase it's already a social norm here. I believe that it does NOT effect the child in any negative way, and does POSSIBLY effect him in a positive way... permanently. Can you link an article that I can not counter? So far, I've done an ample job of tearing apart the ones I've seen. For it to be a useful argument it must:
* Show fact without emotion
* Not try to make definitive statements. Studies are theory, not fact.
* Have actual numbers that appear even remotely logical
* Draw conclusions about statistics that are causal, not correlational
* Not be 2-3 pages long with 67 references. This is not a paper, this is a twist of other people's words.
Can you do this papermachesatan? Others, so far, have failed to product this type of evidence.
