But its a generally accepted principle to only allow parents to give medical consent on their infants behalf for necessary things, and subject to professional approval and oversight.

There seems clearly obvious and ethically relevant differences between parents allowing a blood transfusion and parents electing for their child to have ritual scars or foot binding or FGM etc.
