How do you figure it is major body modification? It's a small snip, nothing major. Again I'll compare it to vaccinating a child - you can definitely wait until they are old enough and let them make that decision, or you can be their parent and make a decision for them knowing it is in their best interest.

Lots of people had long healthy lives before vaccinations were around so like you said, what's the big deal of letting the kid grow up before they get it?

Well the big deal is you're making the child more susceptible to diseases if you don't vaccinate and the same goes for circumcision. The big deal is that as a parent you should be doing everything you can to give your child an advantage. It would be great if all kids could wait until they were old enough to understand the consequences of sex and STDs before having sex, preferably 18 so they could make their own decisions, but that isn't reality.

If you're saying wait until the child has any say in it at all and then do it then are you going to also ask the child what they want to wear that day? Whether or not they want to take their medicine? Whether or not they want to go to school? Of course not. You force them to - you are the parent and you make the decisions for them well into the period that they are able to make decisions and communicate them to you.
