While at the hospital last night we were asked by THREE different hospital employees whether we were vaccinating our child. Really? If I had to be asked on three seperate occasions in a very short 2 hours, that means there are enough idiot parents out there not doing it to ask that often. It made me really angry. I understand asking if DS is up to date on his shots... I'm ok with alternative schedules. Call it an early FFFC if you want, but not vaccinating your child at all is just plain stupid!

Re: S/O not vaccinating...
ITA. I think one of the big problems is that we are so removed from the illnesses now. If we had grown up seeing polio and what it did to children and families, we'd be falling over ourselves to get the vac. Things like that have been gone so long that there's this false sense of secuity, and people start getting hang-ups on stupid things.
I love the arguement "I'm not giving the Polio vaccine. That last case in Polio was like, 1930!"
Um...? Please wrap your tiny little brain around the reason WHY there hasn't been an outbreak of Polio in <insert exact number here, because I'm getting different years>
I'm sorry, jiggawhatnow?
Tell me she didn't really say Shaken Baby was related to vaccines.
Does she know what the fvck Shaken Baby is? Clearly not.
Um, Shaken Baby Syndrome is caused by shaking a baby. How do vaccines apply to this? I'm genuinely curious. Please c & p here so we can see the stupid.

Maybe someone does need to control her mind...
Okay, let me go see if I can find that post on facebook...be right back!
Here is one of the crazy things that my cousin posted on facebook. I was more offended by what she said and not the article. Still trying to locate the one about Shaken Baby Syndrom.
So thrilled that Adam and I are part of the growing number of parents who chose to educate themselves and not let peer-pressure influence the health of their children! Excellent article, doctors are FINALLY waking up!
Okay, here is the beginning of the fb post...by the way, this video that she attached is insane. The guy is insane too! And, read below, I guess it wasn't my cousin who said most of the crazy stuff, but she agreed.
?...just ANOTHER reason why my daughter will NEVER be vaccinated. Wake up parents, research this stuff!!
Don't be discouraged ever. You're doing the right thing and protecting your bebe....I know people think I'm nuts about alot of my views on health issues...but, it's my JOB to protect my kids...God gave them to me to take care of them, not poison them because it's what everyone else is doing. If more people just took the time to BE INFORMED, we'd live in a much healthier world. It's overwhelming at times. I read way too much.
You will like the Wellness page..they're constantly posting studies and whatnot showing strong evidence against vaccinations
