The following research on neonatal cutting is provided for your education. We suggest you read through it all very carefully. The idea is not to scare you but rather to inform you of what happens, physically and psychologically, when neonatal cutting occurs.
“We will have to change the public opinion on childhood circumcision before we will be successful in getting legislation passed to protect boys from genital mutilation.”
-Dr. Devin Savage, Director, Stopthecut.org
“To disseminate the truth of the consequences of childhood circumcision to medical personnel and the general public in an effort to completely abolish this avoidable and brutal violation of basic human rights.”

We recognize that there are other studies in conflict with the studies presented here. We also recognize two very important facts that you should know. One, neonatal cutting, including the selling of foreskins for stem cells and cosmetic products is a very lucrative industry. Your doctor has a financial incentive to remove and keep your son’s foreskin. (http://goo.gl/E57Hhx) Two, research indicates a bias in researchers and doctors who are circumcized.
