I don't think the removing of his foreskin could be nearly as damaging as what he'd have to suffer from his peers, if he were uncircumcised. Kids/adolescents can be cruel. I would never want to purposely set my child up for something like that.
Now only 60% of boys born in America get circumcised
and the number is (fortunately) decreasing.
