  • Welp. It had to be done as a newb to work. Maybe it was a fail.

  • I was disappointed last week to open my FB and see a post from an old college friend. It was a picture of her 5 year old holding a sign that said, "____'s first day of Kindergarten! (Except he's not going because he's home with the chicken pox!)". He's got a great big smile and all the comments are like, haha, lol, too cute...and I'm all agitated because this is really not cute or funny. It's dangerous!

    After taking my son for his first round, I'm convinced that part off the reason this stupid "movement" has gotten so far is because it sucks to hold your kid down while someone jabs him with needles. I think some parents that buy into it are a little weak and a little selfish, and love having an excuse not to have to go through the vaccination process themselves. (And a little stupid, but that's a given).

    Edited because autocorrect sucks.

  • I had the chicken pox vaccine and still got the chicken pox. So I don't think you can conclude the kid wasn't vaccinated. I've been told they can still get it, but cases are typically less severe.

    Having the chicken pox =/= not vaccinating.
    She does not vaccinate her kids at all. Sorry, didn't realize I left that out.
  • @ScoutNumbers05‌ as it was happening I was literally saying to myself, "It's better than polio, it's better than polio..." Dumb but it got me through.

    Does she have some kind of exception that got him into school? Or does he go to religious school.

    Depending on where you are, all you have to do (in some places) is state a religious objection. Bogus or not, that's good enough to attend public school.

    I am thankful many places are changing those rules.


    Wow.

  • She states religious reasons. I'm not sure what type of school they go to (public/private) but she has a FIRM stance against vaccinating.
