Franziskus beendet Asienreise mit Appell für Kinderrechte
Jedes Kind ein Geschenk
Franziskus sagte, jedes Kind müsse als Geschenk betrachtet, angenommen und beschützt werden. Die Güte Gottes sei durch das schutzbedürftige Kind Jesus in die Welt gebracht worden.
Wo er schon mal auf den Philippinen war, hätte er doch ruhig mal auf die dortige Situation eingehen können.
Dort werden praktisch alle Jungen genitalverstümmelt, und zwar hauptsächlich von katholischen Christen. Also Franziskus' "Schäfchen".
More affluent parents opt to have their children circumcised as neonates in hospital, but the majority prefer that their sons undergo the tradition at around 5–7 years of age. Boys of the same age group would either go to government-sponsored missions, hospitals, or to a local circumciser
The traditional circumciser would tell the patient to chew guava leaves and then simply cut off the foreskin of the boy with a sharp knife. The boy is then to wash off in the cold waters of a nearby river and to apply the masticated guava leaves as a poultice on the wound.
Newly circumcised boys usually wear housedresses or loose skirts to help in the healing. The swelling that might occur during this period is termed pangángamatis (literally, "becoming like a tomato", kamatis) owing to the reddish appearance of the penis.
