>You get what you wish for?The story, however true it might be, illustrates the bizarre, irrational nature of genital mutilation. Children only wish for love, food, comfort and trust. Instead he, or she, is given excruciating pain and a mutilated body. We aren't told what the mother wished...nor have you directly expressed your interest in this affair. We trust that it comports with the child's desires. Does it?
