→What if I choose not to have my baby circumcised?: Add text.
==What if I choose not to have my baby circumcised?==
If you choose not to have your baby [[circumcised]], you will have made a very wise choice for your son. He will not suffer the horrible [[pain]] of circumcision. He will not be exposed to the [[risks and complications]] that can occur after circumcision. He will immediately enjoy the [[Foreskin#Protective_functions| protective functions]] of his [[foreskin]] and in his adult life, he will enjoy [[sex as nature intended it]].
When the AAP wrote, "talk with your child's doctor about how to keep the penis clean", It is apparent that they were trying to make you believe that keeping an intact [[penis]] clean is very hard. Actually, caring for an [[intact]] penis is much easier than caring for a [[circumcised]] penis. The intact penis is protected by its [[foreskin]], so all a parent has to do is to wash the outside of the foreskin.<ref>{{REFweb
