*****Because I'm never going to say that child abuse is okay, that's why.
"The majority (of physicians) is pro-circumcision."
*****It is a very slim margin, in this study anyway: 54%, and (notably) most performed by male physicians. Now there's some food for thought.

There are males out there who are not so particularly keen about 'cleanliness' and this poses a danger to their female partners.
***This is disgusting. First, what is a woman doing with a man whose personal hygiene is so marginal that she risks disease by sleeping with him?? Simply grotesque.
Do you get it?
*****I get that you think surgery should be used in lieu of education, which is ridiculous.
Some do not even know that they should 'pull back' the foreskin etc.......
***Then give the guy either a Darwin award or some education.
Maybe you should draft a notice to be stuck on each shower..'how to.....'
***It's actually not a bad idea, & would probably spare more than a few infants.
Why are you so stubborn?
****see above.
You should think it over and say
'I screwed up...'
*****I think this sentiment should be reserved for anyone who has ever had their baby boy circumcised.

Stubborn children!
Does anyone other than me have a REALLY stubborn child? My son just turned 9 and he is going through a VERY stubborn point in his life and it's about to make me pull my hair out. That child has an argument for EVERYTHING! And punishments.........that's a joke to him! Seriously, I can take away every single thing he has, every single activity, restrict him from everything and he just doesn't care! I'm thinking seriously about our family going to some sort of counseling at this time, because it is driving me insane with him never minding!
His new thing that he does involves dinner time. Every single time I put dinner on the table, whether it is something he likes or not, he complains! He starts off the meal complaining that he doesn't like this or that or isn't in the mood for this or that and dinner time even is such a stressor to me and I find it straight out disrespectful that I work an hour or two in the kitchen for him to behave that way when many people don't even have food on their table.
My husband is very laid back with the children, although they do take him seriously when he gets stern. We talked last night and about the dinner thing, I am going to start putting dinner on the table and one rude remark from him, he is going to be taken up from the table and sent to his room and he can come out and eat his dinner alone once everyone else is done to avoid the distractions of him complaining.
I'm seriously about to lose it though. He is a good kid, very smart in school, but he is pushing and pushing lately. Any advice?

LOL, dads are stubborn, aren't they?
I wish your friend the best of luck. I don't think his desire to want acknowledgment of his name choice is silly, either. Families are sure a trial sometimes.
Because of that darned stubborn streak of mine...
This is my face trying to figure how to post a picture....okay, so it was my face maybe 30-odd years ago, but you get the point.
Deenibeeni, you are right on sm
and the question is...why do you have creditors that have to be paid before you can eat? Is it his high spending habits that got you into this mess? He is starving you because why...you don't make the same money he does??? Toro poo poo!
Email me...we'll find you a better job at the very least. We need to talk and I won't harp on you, I only want to help. I'll pay for the call if you send the number and tell me when you are safe to talk.
Deenibeeni: This you should know as an MT regarding tonsils!
Tonsils have a very important function in the immune defence before they get infected.
When they get grossly infected, they do more harm than good and are removed.
Did nobody tell you this?
dear deenibeeni..you are misinformed
Circumcision is, as you mentioned in your above post, very hygenic. By removing the foreskin, a buildup of smegma is prevented. This is the main reason why circumcision is done. It should be actually done right in the first week after birth, because it is least painful when done early. It is done under anesthesia.
Genital mutilation done on women is not only 'cutting off the labia, it includes the removal of the clitoris, the part of the female body that causes foremost orgasm for a woman, causing her to become frigid.
This procedure is still done in some fundamental Muslim countries, but soon it will be forbidden, because this IS abuse.
dear deenibeeni, tell your 'wisdom' to
physicians, the majority is pro-circumcision.
There are males out there who are not so particularly keen about 'cleanliness' and this poses a danger to their female partners. Do you get it?
Some do not even know that they should 'pull back' the foreskin etc.......

Hadn't thought about that - thanks, deenibeeni! nm

Agree with you deenibeeni - we've been conditioned to believe that its good
There's also the issue of consent. Its an irreversable procedure - what if your son missed having a foreskin? I've read about men having wished that their parents didn't make that decision for them. I don't see a difference between male and female circumcision; its just that we've been conditioned to believe that male circumcision is good. Its just as barbaric and cruel.
Dreft detergent and 20 Mule Team Borax for stubborn stains, gentle on baby's skin..sm
and hypoallergenic. Works very well on those burp-up stains, ya know, the ones with Poly-Vi-Sol vitamins.
I don't suppose many of you are old enough to remember cloth diapers and diaper pins, plastic pants that went over them to contain leakage, Dreft detergent or 20 Mule Team Borax and heaven forbid knowing how to clean them! Ask your grandmothers how it was done. And you think you have it rough with disposable diapers!  Cat
Anyone who can make bread for 35 cents/loaf is a wizard in my book, deenibeeni! nm
