First of all we all love our children no matter what. Love is unconditional. Secondly some children medically need the procedures done. Also saying that adults have been shamed into silence I just dont get. I will raise my daughter to understand about her condition and what was performed. Also there is nothing to be ashamed about. G-d made everyone a way for a reason, but people all over the world are getting all kinds of stuff done...breast implants, face lifts etc. Some surgeries are necessary. Its how they choose to live their lives and some may chose to have surgery or may chose not to. All I have to say isI love my daughter and we did what we felt was right. And you say you are the voice of experience...well everyone experiences things differently. No one in the world will have the same experience. No one person in the world is the same and everyone has their own beliefs. I am not judging anyone your opinion is yours and I have mine as does everyone else.
