Should children be violently abused without their permission.

[Jenny A]

We were questioned at length before our first was born (we didn't know the sex yet) but we weren't pressured either way.

Yeah, they just kept handing me pieces of paper asking me whether or not I wanted my sons snipped - I think I signed about 20 all told between the two. By the last few times they asked the question (I was starting to wonder how often fuckups occurred) I felt like telling them that the next time someone asked me whether or not I wanted my sons cut I would cut the questioner -on the spot-. Thankfully my wife has a more gentle demeanor than I and so she just took over from there.

Funny thing, once a girl popped out, they stopped asking us about circumcision. Seriously, it must vary a lot depending on where you are in the U.S. because the hospital was trending only 30% circumcised. But Boulder is not a "normal" place. It's trendy, lefty, overly full of PHDs and rich.

On that note we were asked [don't read if your stomach is easily turned]

if we wanted to either eat the placenta or donate it to vegans so they might partake. We opted to neither eat nor donate.
