Being circumsized doesn't decrease your chance of disease.

My Son is Almost 2wks Old I Got Him Circumcised @ Birth & He Didn't Cry One Bit...If You Do Choose For Him 2 Have it Done , Now is The Time To Say Yes Or No . If You Wait Til They're Of Age - it'll Hurt A Lot More

I'm having a boy and I am most definitely having him circumcised it's a healthier way of life for men and it helps because when they reach that age (teen years) they will be at low risk for catching diseases

Neither of my boys have it done. It's strictly cosmetic.

Please do your own research on the circumcision issue. Do not take it lightly. Please don't have one just because others are doing it or he'll look different than daddy, ect. Educate yourself and do what you feel is right.

Im having my little boy circumcised because it is healthier and cleaner for him. Lowers the chances for infections and such.

I'm having a boy and I'm not having it done. There are things that can go wrong and if you don't have it done since its not really needed you just need to teach him from an early age that he needs to keep it clean, which should be taught regardless lol and my boyfriend has another son and he didn't have it done and his son is good and keeps clean and has had no problems.

Well its mostly just a personal decision, it tends to cause a lot of chaos on here to. But im having a boy to and im getting him circumcised for the simple fact that it is cleaner and healthier for the boy as he ages and its easier for them.to clean when they hit the age where they start doing baths and stuff themselves.
