The Ryans have 3 children who are rapidly heading into the adolescent phase of their development. From chats with close friends, and the information they have gathered from the media, the Ryans anticipate nothing but havoc for the next several years.

What information would you give them about what lies ahead for them? Include the physical changes that occur in both males and females during this period. Describe what parents can do in this period that will have a positive effect on their children’s development.

1. If you had an infant born with ambiguous genitalia, would you opt for surgery? Inhibit the onset of puberty with drugs? What gender would you raise the child? If surgery were chosen, when the child was old enough, would you inform him or her about this treatment? Or would you not choose surgery and instead leave the decision to the individual at a later time?

2. Though the wider U.S. population has adopted the practice of male circumcision, public awareness and oppo- sition to circumcision have grown from those who under- score the pain, bleeding, and risk of infection to newborns. A growing number of people argue that circumcision vio- lates a baby’s human right because an infant can’t consent and that it’s akin to genital mutilation. Controversy has also surrounded a wave of state Medicaid programs that have stopped paying for newborn circumcision, which costs roughly $150 to $200. While the evidence continues to build on behalf of circumcision, so does the debate that surrounds this decision.

Given the evidence about circumcision, would you have your son circumcised? Why or why not?
