what are your opinions about circumcisions?

[UTnewmom24]

I work in a hospital and it's better in my opinion to do it.  I've seen many people have to come in later to get it done do to infection and I have seen two men yes they were older but they had theirs apputated.  It is up to the parents but in my professional opinion I'd have it done

If i have a son i will not. It was how God made them , if you clean it well and teach your son how to there will never be infections . Circumcised boys get infections , so it has nothing to do with that . I just feel like if they were suppose to be circumcised thats how they would have been made .

I think unless you have religious reasons not to then snip it. ... I'm having a baby boy and had the same question and have found circumcision is preventive
It can save your boy from future infections

My boyfriend and I are definitely going to get our son circumcised..  Most kids as teens feel embarrassed and in the locker room I just couldn't imagine the words people would say to him. There's no question about it for us. It's a for sure yes. I don't care about anything. I think K about how he's going to be treated when he gets older. Teens now a days don't know how to stop being mean. I don't want my son to go through that.

This is a very argumentative subject. I'm having a boy and we will be having him circumcised. Everyone has different opinions on it. I've done my research and I feel it's the best. Just like being uncircumcised, things such as infections can occur. I understand this but it's just a personal preference.

As someone going into the nursing field and having a baby boy, we will be having it done. There definitely is a difference, and if something does happen later on to an uncircumcised boy and it HAS to be done it is much more serious than right after birth.
