Doctor: Ok. We can just cut off his outtermost ears then. They can interfere with proper cleaning
Mother: NO, STOP! These are horrible ideas. What kind of parent do you think I am?
Doctor: Hmm... I suppose you'd like us to cancel the circumcision then?
Mother: Actually, lets not get too far ahead of ourselves here, doctor
