Well, that's overdramatic.

At the same time, I think Jenny McCarthy is a whackadoo so it doesn't outrage me too much.

It was emailed by some crazy girl I know but she emailed literally every mom we knew I'm sure scaring the bejeezus out of them. 

 PS All I ever think when I see Jenny McCarthy is "full bush" bc my brother had that Play Boy

wow....IMO, with having dealt with autistic kids, and being mildly autistic myself, I'd rather have an autistic child than lose my child to a completely preventable disease.

 

But I don't agree with any of this vaccines-cause-autism stuff, but who knows.....the entire world believed it was flat for several hundred years.....and tomatoes used to be "poisonous"....  People believe what they want to believe  because to do so comforts them.

Its "better" to blame a vaccine for autism, because if it wasn't the vaccine, then that may mean it was the parents fault......or, God forbid, a random, 1 in 1000, occurrence.
