Absolutely, my son, who is 32 has thanked me for getting it done when he was a infant. As a nurse, I can say, uncircumcised 89 year olds are suffering. Years of not being clean catches up.

And my sons who are of the same age as yours thank me for not allowing this to be done. I taught them how to retract the foreskin, after it naturally released itself from the shaft, and how to clean themselves. As their pediatrician said, "It's a matter of keeping themselves clean, you know, like women do. After all, we teach our daughters how to clean and there are more folds and crevices on a woman than a man."

Maybe someone should have taught those suffering old men how to clean themselves.

God's design and he didn't design us to have to "fix" his mistakes.

If you have to - root canal them, have them broken off at the gum, or surgically alter other impacted teeth. Ripping out the back roots from your jaw does extremely serious permanent damage to your head and nervous system

Sorry about your extractions.

we've got millions of problems before we get to the possibility of this.

It's not that hard to keep it clean if you are uncircumcised. In fact, it's really easy.

As someone who was, I can't say that it ultimately matters. It's an entirely different thing from female "circumcision" and doesn't carry the issues associated with it. If y'all want to get bent out of shape over it, have at it. Can't believe this thread made it to 25 pages, honestly.
