Just wondering if anyone can answer this for me...

Why is there such variation in the age of the child and whether the doctor will use the plastibell or stitches? I have been told by my doctor that he will only use the plastibell up until 6 months old and then will only use stitches after that. But other doctors are quite ok to use the plastibell under primary school age?
