CIRCUMCISION LOSING FAVOUR WITH U.S. PARENTS.

Circumcision losing favour with U.S. parents.


When Nancy McIlvaine told her parents that her newborn son wouldn't

McIlvaine, who lives in Napa with her husband, Willem Maas, said she consulted with health professionals about circumcision and never heard a compelling reason to snip her baby's foreskin.

"It's just inflicting pain to a newborn when there doesn't seem to be any evidence of it being beneficial," said McIlvaine, who gave birth to
Theodore on June 8.

McIlvaine is part of a growing trend away from male circumcision.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the
circumcision rate in the United States dropped to 55.9 percent in 2003 --
an all-time postwar low.    In the early '60s, it peaked at 90 percent.
