I have a general objection to newborn children being exposed to the world too quickly and prefer to allow them private time with mom and dad for a number of weeks before bringing them too quickly into the public sphere. Is this my own discomfort with people? <BR/><BR/>In any case, I view my own relationship with Hashem as very personal and challenging, though essential to my happiness. It feels to me like a brit is a very personal thing to go through and might be best done in a home with just the closest family members and friends nearby, not in a shul.Evenewrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08414118418564198912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19907120.post-11301154310302130612009-01-25T18:57:00.000+02:002009-01-25T18:57:00.000+02:00oh boy. now I'm doubly sorry I didn't inform you o...oh boy. now I'm doubly sorry I didn't inform you of Ephraim's brit.

Yasher koach.<BR/><BR/>And having had a friend who underwent circumsion as a 30-something adult (for health reasons), I can vouch for the "risky and painful" comment.Alissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00846819414972534465noreply@blogger.com
