Routine Infant Circumcision
Revision as of 23:25, 4 January 2020 by WikiModEn2 (talk | contribs) (Add information on unlawful nature.)
RIC is an acronym for Routine Infant Circumcision.
Mainly in the United States, boys are still circumcised in many hospitals immediately after birth. Very often, this is done without informing or asking the parents previously at all.
Routine infant circumcision (i. e. non-therapeutic circumcision without consent) is an unlawful procedure for which damages may be recovered.[1]
