  1. I don’t know about in the UK, but in the US most doctors will refuse to perform such surgery on children before they have completed puberty because the body is always changing during childhood and adolescence, and messing around with it in that time is a bad idea. It’s not against any laws here, it’s just a doctor’s preference, and most of them will refuse.

    But like I said, this is in the US, not the UK. You guys might hold different beliefs about this than we do.

  2. please tell me you are joking. Are you talking about gastric bypass for your child?
