How much pain does it cause the child? And is it going to cause the child permanent physical or mental harm?
For these reasons I would think not, as the child will never remember it (obviously if done at the usual 8 days), but I think this is one really for the each parent to decide, but then for that matter, is giving our children inoculations not a form of child abuse? We know its for the child's best, but is it necessary to cause them pain every time?
