I think if you'll read all of the posts that have been writen on the subject by girls who have had or haven't had the surgery you'll find that all of those that didn't have the surgery wither until they were older or never, rarely if ever express regret. Those that had the surgery at a young age mostly regret it while a few do not. In the end it is obviousl that submitting your child to the surgery at a young age is a gamble with someone else's life.Danny Carlton
