I said it's a requirement for health. It
is terrible to see them in pain and cry
because of a needle, but .I would rather
have them be in pain for a minute than be
close to death or sick for months/years
from an illness .I could prevent. I do
think it should be a personal choice and
nobody should be shunned for choosing to
not immunize their children.
My father had polio as a child and was
terribly sick. He has a lot of problems
with his legs to this day. They are very
skinny and fraile.
My mother had the mumps and she remembers
the pain and feeling of over all death she
felt.
Chicken pox? I had my daugher immunized
for it, but only because she was 14 and
had not had them yet, and .I was afraid of
her getting them as an adult and being
extremely ill from them. I had them when
.I was 4 and was fine.
I have not given my son the Hepatitis
shots as of yet. I am choosing to wait
until he's a bit older.
I am also going to wait to give him his
.M.M.R until he is getting ready to start
school. I keep hearing it's linked to
.Autism.
My son, my choice, my opinions.

people who say its dangerous can kiss my
@ss...every single person i know has had
them including my parents , aunts ,
cousins all my friends basically everyone
and none of us have serious problems with
the meds corresponding to the
vaccines.....my grandfather back in the
20's wasnt vaccinated and had polio in his
leg and was a cripple all his life...if
only he had been vaccinated he wouldnt had
such a difficult life... vaccines are
essential and vital...

repeated scientific studies have found no
link between autism and vaccines.
they recently aired a show on npr that i
found very interesting. you can listen to
it here-
i am all for vaccines. i did my research
before my baby was born and decided i'd
rather be safe than sorry (though i'm sure
that's the same phrase that non-vaxers
use). if something happened to my son, and
i could've prevented it but chose not to,
i couldn't live with myself.

I hear that there is no link and then .I
hear there is. We had this gentleman
working for us that had a perfectly normal
son (whatever perfectly normal means these
days) who was talking and meeting all
milestones. He had his immunizations and
has never spoken a word since. Could be
coincidence, may not be.
I'm much more neurotic these days, and .I
work with adults with developmental
disabilities so if there is a way .I can
prevent, .I'm going to try.
I would never try to pass my
views/opinions on to others though, and .I
do plan on having the MMR done, just not
now.
