This article, “Foreskin restoration information for circumcised teens”, is intended to provide information to teen-age boys who were circumcised without their consent and who would not have chosen to be circumcised.
Circumcision requires someone to grant consent. The medical profession traditionally has allowed a parent to serve as a surrogate to provide consent for a child who is not old enough to grant consent for himself. There are unsettled questions about whether this is lawful in the case of unnecessary non-therapeutic circumcision.
Parents may choose circumcision for a son because their religion requires it, because it is popular in the United States, because they believe it is cleaner and healthier, or most frequently simply because the father was circumcised when he was a boy.
