They all answered yes. For me to think that I know more than them would be arrogant and foolish of me. Keep in mind these decisions have serious consequences if I choose wrong. For me to be "RIGHT" when I don't have a PHD or MD in that particular field of study doesn't just make me wrong, it can penalize my kids health for life. This is the perfect situation where I consulted people who really do know and are considered experts in this field and went with what they though over my limited education that I learned from friends, GFY, internet, etc.

My cousin who I'm very close with has a son who has something(Autism) that she blames getting all his vaccines to close together versus not spacing them apart. She blames herself daily for her sons condition and the bad results from what she thinks were her poor desicions. Its pretty sad.



Also keep in mind: Writing what you think or writing your opinion as "IF" you know about something, on a posting board is pretty easy. If People disagree and attack you, you tell them "Fuck Off" and mute them. Simple and easy.


But; Will you actually risk your child's health, life, wellbeing on you statements that you made on the posting board? Thats the super Key question!! If you have no kids and say' "well if I had kids...", that shit doesn't count and people with kids understand and will back me up on that one.


One thing I did do was get the vaccines spaced where they usually do them together, because at that time I did not know one way or the other and I wanted to be safe with it.


But to not get my kids vaccinated was never and option for me.

Great stuff! would love to hear any and all well thought out opinions on either side of the subject.




I would have to agree with you on all of your points my friend.

that guy will never have kids. he just likes to rant and rave on this board against or for things that nothing to do with him.

anyways, i think back about how so many of my friends grew up in homes where both parents smoked, smoked in the car, drank pop every day, ate like shit, etc

are there really more fucked up kids? there seemed to be a number of them when i was a kid but they weren't considered fucked up, just weird or stupid or different. now we have to label every kid as something. if your kid has some strange quirk, holy shit he must be autistic. i will agree that vaccines seem out of control in the US as they have added so many more over the years but its not like that here in canada yet we have so many kids who are 'autistic' or have allergies (which i believe this is a result of over-worried parents not exposing their kids and the fact that people with allergies often marry other people with allergies), etc, etc.
