Everyone was feeling hesitant to decide over Micheal as he was too young. The parents approached him in quite a straight manner and explained that a sharp needle would be entering from his back and that if he felt scared, there is no need to go through the process at all.

Though as a parent we felt that he was too young to comprehend any part of it but in reality Micheal did and he was ready for everything. Somehow he sensed the urgency and responded accordingly which made the parents proud.
