CIRCUMCISION: THE PAINFUL DILEMMA.

CIRCUMCISION: THE PAINFUL DILEMMA.


[A book by Rosemary Romberg.
This book is dedicated to: All of the baby boys who have yet to be born into this world ... with the sincere hope that the beginnings of your lives may be peaceful and joyous, and that you may live in this world whole and complete as you were intended to be.]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

But even for ME, of all people, there was some uneasiness. 
“The baby is a boy!  He will be born with a penis!  He will have a foreskin! – Panic!!  Good grief, I wrote the book!!  

I shouldn’t be feeling scared!!  I’ve been everyone’s resource for circumcision information.  There’s no way I’ll ever put another son through that torture!! 

I’d be the biggest hypocrite of the century!!  But this one will be the one who is different!!  I’ll have to face the relatives!!  Theory will now become practice.”

EDUCATION: TAKE ACTION.

FORESKIN EDUCATION.


There are many different methods for educating others about the risks of infant circumcision.

Here are some general tips I’ve found to be helpful in having a civil conversation with people.

Although there are multiple ways to get a point across, I’ve found that being calm and reasonable is often more effective than shouting and forcing our views.

Change doesn’t happen over night.

There are 3 steps to changing the way people perceive circumcision:-
*Appeal to their emotions.
*Appeal to their intelligence.
*Give them a clear plan.

Studies show that in order to truly and permanently change the way people look at anything in life, you have to hit all 3 of these areas.

Emotion is what drives human beings. It gets us fired up about a topic. But information is what seals the deal.

Once we understand the facts and information, our brain can process both the emotion and the intellect.

A clear plan is the final step. People must have guidance to follow-through. Otherwise, there is confusion and mixed responses, which can trigger people to revert back to their old way of thinking.

Clarity is an essential key to inspiring a permanent change.
