sarah, I promise you, they cannot force
you to get your child vaccinated. Every
single state has a policy of exemption.
For example, a friend of mine got
exemptions for religiious reasons. She
is christian. Her reasoning was that she
did not want the vacccines because they
contain aborted fetal tissues (yes this is
actual fact) and this is against
christianity. You can also claim
philosophical reasons. And for that you
can say pretty much anything.
There is a way around everything.

That's doing it disgusting..
If all that sh*t is true my son is never
getting a shot again.
I just have a question of which is more
common? How many kids get problems from
actually getting vaccinated? And how many
kids are fine from it?

Natalia did u not get your son vaccinated
at all from anything? Just wondering. I
know some people are totally against
vaccinating babies/kids. I dont know much
about it so im not sure their reasons and
im not trying to start a debate, I just
wondered what your opinion is on them.
I just feel like i'd rather protect lucas
from a nasty disease, which can cause
severe problems, by getting him
vaccinated, rather than risk him getting
them.
Never heard of a vaccine for chicken pox,
I guess its not offered over here in the
uk. Chicken pox isnt all that bad tho
really is it, and everyone seems to have
had it -most while kids....I guess if I
could protect lucas from getting it though
by a vaccine -then I would.

i haven't heard of it either so I don't
think it is offered here. Perhaps you
can pay and have it done privately
Mind you, the new meningitis jab has only
just been 'released' in the .U.K - it's
been used in the .U.S for about 5 years or
so.
Max has had all the vaccinations that have
been offered to him. I weighed up the
risks and decided to trust the medical
professionals. I totally understand why
people would choose not to do that though.
My thinking was that if .Max got
seriously ill with something I could have
prevented with a jab then I would hate
myself. As it is, he had the .M.M.R
(measles, mumps,rubella) and recently had
measles so if he's not had the jab he
could have had it really bad and perhaps
even died...Horrible thought

That is disgusting. Layla has had the mmr
and I did not know it contained aborted
fetus tissue
i will still give logan the mmr though as
the benefits outweigh the risks (to me)

Hehe trey's going for his 18 month shots
today. He also got the chicken pox
vaccine and the flu shot which he had to
get as he is in daycare. To me the
benefits outweigh the "nasty" side of
things. It's not like they take the
whole fetus and throw it into the mixture.
Stem cells and such. People are
stopping getting their kids vaccinated and
these old diseases are coming back and
stuff. Polio?? Not thanks. I got
all my shots and am fine.

I personally would not give a child the
combined mmr jab.
Way too many risks and there is the much
safer option of having those jabs
individually.

Sarah, you don't have to have your child
vaccinated at all in the united states.
There is nooo state where they can force
you to do so. Don't be fooled into
believing that it's true. I got into a
battle royale with chu's first
pediatrician about shots. He wanted me
to give chu a vaccine that I was not
comfortable with him having. I'm sure
i've said it before but 3 of my nephews
(now, tho at the time I think it was two
and various other relatives) had severe,
immediate respiratory side effects as soon
as they got the dpt shot. All three
(nephews) had to be rushed to the er and
one developed pneumonia and was
hospitalized for a week. The fool goat
banging doctor told me that that was a
chance that I would have to take.
Hmmmm.....Yeah, i'm really gonna take that
chance when we've a family history of
severe reactions... 
needless to say I found a new ped. I
talked with her to find out why the
combined shot was causing the reaction and
we were able to find a safer vaccine for
diptheria and pertussis. Those I
consider necessary because of the elevated
risk of infant death. Now chicken pox
is another story. He ain't gettin' it.
Excuse my grammar, but I feel very
strongly that a chicken pox vaccine is
ridiculous. Not only is it not
guaranteed to work it could also cause
chicken pox. I don't need a seven month
old with chicken pox and since he might
get it later on even tho he's been
vaccinated I really don't see the point.
Every one has had it and I don't know a
single person who's been seriously harmed
by it. I think people are going
overboard with these shots. Okay, i'm
rambling. I'll stop now.

Chicken pox in childhood is rarely severe
or dangerous. (i had it twice which
apparently isn't possible but the ya go
lol)
however, chicken pox in adult hood can
quickly develop into shingles (iirc there
is come correlation to menigitis with
shingles *need to google it*).
My mom did not have chicken pox as a child
but did get it as an adult and she was
really ill for sometime because it
developed into shingles.
Mumps also for the boys - in childhood
rarely dangerous, for adult men it can be
a primary cause of infertility.
Both can be life-threatening to an unborn
fetus - if the pregnant woman contracts
the disease for the first time while
pregnant. (same with rubella/german
measles).

I had it at age 4 and it's a happy memory
for me because I got to stay home from
school for two weeks and play board games
with my mum and pap-pap all day long. I
also got a brand new cabbage patch that my
mom decorated with a red washable marker
to match my chicken pox.

I mean, I have no family history of
reactions, or any religious/philisophical
beliefs.
Believe me, I was very intent on finding
out the specific reasoning for each and
every shot. Me and .Kay had this convo a
loooong time ago...
Oni's ped actually told the hospital to
hold off on her shots, as his office
provided *mercury free* vaccines. Mercury
is what causes many of the reactions heard
about.
I think that preventing an illness, as
opposed to letting them get it, makes the
most sense. I mean we *are* talking about
protecting our babies from harm.
I'm not gonna bash any woman that
vaccinated their child, as we put our
trust in the people with ".M.D" behind
their names. And i, personally, ain't no
doctor.
I also know that info found on the net
isn't a good way to go about things.
There are going to be *millions* of
conflicting sights, and you choose which
sit best fits your argument, ya know?
Reguardelss, all of our babies are
helathy. Oni isn't going to *die* from
getting the flu shot. Nor will she die
from getting the chicken pox vacc.
(if there's a history of medical probs
after shots, then yes, death is a
possibility)
ok, ladies!! I've got hella errands to
run!! I'll beee baaaaccckkk!!

no?

Are you sure they contain aborted fetal
matter? I guess I just don't see abortion
doctors saving that stuff and storing it.
I thought it was all disposed of as
hazardous material.
Not trying to argue or anything! I just
don't understand how that happens.
I would rather err on the side of caution.
Alyvia's getting her vaccines because I
would never forgive myself if she were to
become sick later on. But that's me. I'm
not knocking anyone who decides not to!
