I heard the boy had multiple infections and it was medically necessary. I can't imagine circumsizing a young man for any other reason. Does the father really want his child to continue in pain? Baffled.

I'm baffled, too. Obviously this surgery was recommended by the child's doctor for medical reasons. It seems inhumane to block the surgery.

I'm betting that most of those infections could be avoided if they show the boy how to properly clean himself.

Baffled.  In this particular instance, I think it's just an example of a control-freak ex-husband wanting to exert his control over his family.
