Views on child circumcision
Spock initially favored child circumcision, but when the American Academy of Pediatrics, a medical trade association, said circumcision had no medical indication,[2] he started to change his view. His studies on psychology of children also helped him to reach that decision. Spock revised the Fourth Edition of Baby and Child Care (1976) to his anti-circumcision view.[1]
