I always wanted my son circumcised but I wanted to let him choose and not do it at birth. My wife and I promised each other we would support him if he chose to do it in the future. It’s a really long story but now he wants to do it for religious reasons and insurance won’t cover it and it’s going to be thousands of dollars and I’m not sure what to do. I support his decision and I always said I would but now I feel like if I don’t pay for it then I’m reneging on a promise we made long ago and that we always told him we supported if he chose. Has anyone had any luck getting a work around for insurance to cover things like this?

Edit: to give context, we live in America where circumcision is incredibly common.
