Kids under 6 "don't have the hand coordination necessary for independent toothbrushing," & their teeth fall out naturally anyway starting at about age 6, yet everyone recognizes it would be unethical to extract baby teeth absent compelling medical need #i2 @AmerAcadPeds #meded https://twitter.com/DrChenchilla77/status/1071611959957774336 …

A male gets 1
#foreskin for his entire life, & cleaning it properly could not be easier, yet even in 2018 we have not fully stamped out the unsupportable & idiotic view that amputating a boy's foreskin could somehow be justified on "hygiene" grounds.#i2@AmerAcadPeds#meded4 replies 6 retweets 23 likesShow this thread -
How sad that Dr Chen felt the need to block me after these tweets. Even sadder is that it's obviously b/c she has nothing substantive to say in defense of
@AmerAcadPeds & its unethical#circumcision policy. (I'm pretty sure it's not b/c she's pro-child tooth extraction.)#i22 replies 2 retweets 7 likesShow this thread
Then again, with @AmerAcadPeds, no assumptions should be made about what healthy child body parts they think might be cut into or cut out.
For now, I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt that they are not for non therapeutic child tooth extraction. #i2http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/125/5/1088 …
