my family and Alex's family have very different views on circumcision, and I've been getting it from each side about why I should or shouldn't listen to them. we finally made up our mind and I'm happy about it. I know it's OUR kid and it's OUR choice but Holy hell.. having very involved family makes it hard sometimes because everyone "successfully raised kids" and it's our first.

Lol. I don't get why so many people care. They don't have to look at it or care for it. I'm glad you are happy with your choice.

it's kind of crazy honestly.. when we announced he was a boy some random lady messaged me sending me links to articles on why we shouldn't get it done. 1. I don't know you well enough for your opinion to count. 2. you're literally NEVER going to see my child's penis. it's harder with grandparents because they're going to change diapers and stuff and I don't want someone to think I'm a bad parent 😣 but we've figured it out ! @bonniesue

i just think it's so difficult because I don't have a penis, how the hell am I supposed to know which one is better. I figured regardless of what we chose someone would have something to say about it, so fuck em. don't look at it if you don't like it. @mrs.n2014

honestly it's your decision and your child , everyone has their opinion and I respect that. I chose not to circumcise my boy , my mom thinks it's gross but I didn't want to. but that Doesn't mean I think badly of people who do circumcise their kid, it's their decision and their child.

yea I definitely agree it shouldn't matter, but once you've raised your kids you seem to know best 😕 if it's going to be a deal breaker for a friendship or family relationship then clearly they aren't worth having around. @bluepenguin

I'm not sure circumcision has anything to do with raising a successful child 😋 tell them not to worry about it

so what's your decision? @jsco lol just curious... before we found out the sex of baby my doctor asked us if it was a boy if we would want him circumcised and before I could answer or anything my husband was all like "Yes we want him circumcised" which was okay with me because I wanted it done to. we are having a girl BTW

were not going to do it. but then once he reaches a certain age, probably just before puberty (because his body will be changing anyway) give him the option to have it done. just so he knows he's respected enough to make big decisions about his own body. if he thinks it's weird that he's not like his dad then we can discuss it as a family and talk about the options @dawnrose

good for you guys! 😀 don't worry about what people think, you two are going to do great @jsco
