The CEO may not be the very best father, but I sure as hell am not the worst:

Father wants son, 12, to be circumcised
A divorced Olympia-area man who has converted to Judaism is fighting a court battle in Oregon to have his 12-year-old son circumcised against his ex-wife’s wishes. So far, Oregon courts have squarely sided with the father, who has custody. The man’s ex-wife lives in Oregon. “The primary custodial parent is the one that makes the decisions about religion and education and about matters of child-rearing,” said Kathy Graham, associate dean for academic affairs at Willamette University College of Law. Other family-law experts agree but say the courts should at least make sure the surgery is in the best interests of the child. “You’re talking about not just religious instruction or whether you’re going to send the child to parochial school or public school,” said Lawrence Gorin, a Portland attorney. “This is a matter of permanent change of bodily structure. And it’s irreversible.”

And now for the understatement of the decade:

Mark Johnson, a Portland lawyer asked to comment, said the case should not be decided based only on the legal papers filed on behalf of the mother and father. “Frankly, the child should have a lawyer.”

I plan to remind the Jr. VP about this story the next time he complains about anything.
