Poor guy. It's always harder when they are older. I have two little boys and both were circumcised. It was a very hard decision, but I felt like my husband needed to have the final say. He was circumcised and felt that it truly is better than left undone. For us, it was not about cosmetics. I think it comes down to a personal choice, like everything else. We all end up doing what we each feel is right for us (and of course, our kids). My dad was not circumcised and I can

honestly say it ended up causing him problems. I know men who are uncircumcised can end up contracting sexually transmitted diseases easier too...and in our day and time, that can be deadly! If only we lived in "Perfect-ville" *sigh* like those Wal-greens commercials! ~Chelle
