Protecting your child’s bodily autonomy is a cornerstone of respectful parenting and relationships in general.
➜ Circumcision is a painful (during and after) surgical procedure that is cosmetic in nature and completely medically unnecessary for your beautiful newborn boy.
➜ Declining circumcision or forced retraction of your son’s foreskin communicates a deep respect for and trust in the way his body is designed – absolutely perfect, just like your daughter’s.
➜ Considering the ethical implications of forced retraction and circumcision is important as parents both personally and culturally.
