| Papers have to be signed by at least one parent. I signed for both of my kids circumcisions, and my husband didnt want them to have the procedure. So yes, one parent can sign the papers against the other parents wishes. |

| If you were married, all they need is the consent of one of the parents. | |

| consent for this procedure must be signed by only one parent. You should address your concerns with your doctor and the hospital staff. | |

| Gold I think that you need to do whatever to protect your child. I applaud you, more women need to stick up for the children. Let the bf know that it can always be done, later if need be. But I have 3 nephews that are not circumcised and they are adults now, and never no problems. Also we have 3 great nephews that are not circumcised and 1 is 5 the other 2 and 1 is a year old. IF I had known what I know now. My boys would have never been touched, I listened to the doctor and now after eductaing myself I feel that it is useless to do. Good Luck | |
