CAD, I'd imagine you burned some bridges if you took this approach with your extended family.

At what age does the surgery become too much of a risk? What if a child is 6 or 7? 5?
I would say anytime your child has to have general anesthesia for surgery is more risky than them having it done as a baby.
And anyone older than a baby having it done is going under anesthesia for it.

I'm Catholic, so I've already been snipped. I just wonder because you hear of things like that child in California who went under for a normal dental procedure and she didn't wake up. I had surgery about two months ago and I must have signed like 4 waivers and had to answer at least 50 questions, so apparently it's a risk they take seriously.

Right, so I'm asking if the risk of the surgery outweighs the risk of the potential health problems for not having it.

you'd bet correct. the judao-christian background is strong in my family.
this is my own thing; i didnt do this based on anything other than a simmering rage the more i researched why we do this to our children.
the decision was mine alone and only after extensive reading & research did i make the call. my wife also 100% supported me so that helped tremendously.
our children's doctor was fantastic, she's Greek so she was never once tried to make it sound like we did something wrong..more than i can say about the hospital staff.

What would you rather
Being a newborn with a healing circ site and a nurse or your parent checking it with each diaper change?
Or
Being 5 years old in the hospital with a nurse checking your penis every couple hours and that area being sore in general?

Nurse, I'm not talking about newborns. I am talking about children who for some reason were not circumcised AT BIRTH and the parents for whatever reason could only get it done later on.

I get that, but what if your kid wakes up in 15 years and wants to get it done? Are you equally prepared to explain to him why you didn't do it when it was still commonplace for infants when he was born?
Just as you can criticize parents for making the decision to have it done on their infant sons, you too can be criticized for NOT choosing to do it for him.

Yes.
"Son, it's your penis, not mine. It was done to me without my consent, I wouldn't do the same to you."

how would you describe the others??
Honestly, they cry about like the kind of cry that says "I'm hungry." It isn't nearly the same as, from what I recall being a big brother, like when you drop a kid on the floor.

sedate them with sugar water to take their mind off it??
Counter question- if I chopped your arm off, would sugar water be enough to take your mind off that kind of pain? Sugar water works because they're mostly upset with being held still and a little cold from exposed skin. Not because they're in excruciating pain.

If you are going to throw around words like this as a joke about how I'm what's wrong with the way society approaches the issue, I will, in good fun and with no malintent, quip back that you are a conspiracy theorist or should wear a tin hat or something to that effect.

My son was snipped. If I have another, he'll be snipped too.

yes. absolutely and if he wants to have it done when he's that age, i'll happily write the check. at least he's getting to make the choice.

My little brother had a botched circumcision and has a lot of difficulty today because of it. I'll take B.

You should call him Yosemite, because he has a half dome.

i'm only asking you whether we are JUSTIFYING THIS PROCEDURE since we do it all the time, or if not having bowed to our Jewish masters' will 1000 years ago, we instead suddenly stumbled upon the idea of chopping up a penis 30 years ago would be something GOOD to do.
Can you with clear conscious admit this was born out of a mystic's ritual? How on earth can modern science attempt to justify this procedure otherwise?
