I was born with 12 toes. I went most of my life hating my feet, until recently. I still don't necessarily like them, which is ashame, because my feet don't look all that bad. The parents are right to amputate them righat away. I didn't get my extra toes amputated until the age of 7, and it turned out to be the worst decision, because it stunted the growth of my baby toes! Also, the scarring left from waiting until I was older was much, much more noticeable, than had my parents just done it when I was a baby. I wish my parents had consider how being born with an extra toe on each foot would effect me and done the surgery when I was a baby instead. The pain and suffering from four foot surgeries total, as opposed to one simple foot surgery as a baby could have been avoided.
