I think arguments can be made for either.

Personally, I lean slightly towards the idea that this was a little excessive. I think the majority of the benefit in keeping her small goes to the parent's side. The girl will see some benefit too, but I'm not sure it's big enough to justify the somewhat radical measures taken here.
Since the USA thinks its alright to lop off a kids foreskin instead of having to address the fact that there is a very important part of the body there than needs maintenence and exploration i dont see a problem here.
