Circumcision is mutilation; mutilation is crime.

It appears, and one hopes, that this woman is obviously, completely deranged. Let's hope she stays that way so as not to come to the realization of what she has done. It is one thing for a person to work their way to hell, it's another...to wake up there.

Someone should have told that mom that its not what you have, but what you do with what you have that counts...mental eval is a little late coming. No mention of pop's role, if any.

The mother sees fit to genitally mutilate her own child in the name of a religious doctrine then sees no problem killing the child due to his sexual prowess being affected. Children need firm loving role models. Education and guidance. Security and Love. Sick aberrations are the direct result of the lack of these things in a developing child coupled with fanaticism and horror of horrors mutilation is a recipe for disaster and the production of a very confused damaged adult.
