Regret parents
Regret parents is a term used to describe parents who have at least one boy and had him circumcised, but now regret the genital mutilation.
In some countries (esp. in the USA) and cultures (mainly among Jews and Muslims), expectant parents are sometimes urged by their own parents or relatives to have their son circumcised. Even doctors and religious leaders and communities encourage or press them to agree to the circumcision of the son. However many parents later regret their decision.
Regret for circumcision revision
Bar-Yakov et al. (2022) surveyed parents in Israel who sought circumcision revision surgery to remove so-called "excess foreskin". They reported that 27.5 percent of such parents regretted their decision.[1]
