My husband and I used to be huge House fans. I was in love with House's attitude and the amazing cases the doctor's handled. For some reason it is losing it's touch in my opinion. Any fans out there? Do you think the show has...

mpvanwagner That is so funny that you say that! My mom is always talking about how she is going to marry house and jokes about it a lot... well she just had a birthday last month and my aunt came over so excited to give my mom her present... my aunt hasn't gotten her...

I am sure a lot of you probably vaccinate your children, however, I have chosen not too. I get a lot of crap every time I go to a doctor, and have even heard people remark that they would not let their kids hang out with mine. My...

mpvanwagner I do understand though, I am sorry if for any reason I made you feel uneducated, but you are right, and I never thought about it like that. I do not automatically assume that the parents who choose to vaccinate are uneducated, but I can see where you are...

mpvanwagner Thank you. I agree. I just want people to be informed, and those who do choose to vaccinate should have no problem with those of us who don't. They have no reason to fear our children if their children are so "protected" by the vaccines. I appreciate you...

mpvanwagner You are entitled to your own opinion, and I respect that. Although I am not sure how much faith I put into the people who suggest us to take vaccines and everything else. That is just my personal opinion.

mpvanwagner I respect your opinion, and I hope that you never have to find out either, as well as I hope I never have to endure my son potentially getting sick... but you take your chances and I take mine. (That is not intended to sound sarcastic, I mean it in the most...

mpvanwagner Sadly, I wish it were that way. I would love to think that way. But I just don't. I understand where you are coming from, but just read for yourself on the negative things involved with vaccines (and not just the fever, sickness, blah blah) I mean the real...

mpvanwagner Well, let me actually set the record straight... if your kids are vaccinated, they have the disease in them... and they are building a resistance to it, correct? That is the point of vaccines, right? Well, then I do not see how my son is of any concern to your...

mpvanwagner Well, I am glad that you at least don't run out for every vaccine. You are correct that some of them are just pointless, and only work part of the time. It is sad that the government forces the issue, because it would be so much easier if everyone could make...

mpvanwagner I understand where you are coming from, and I do agree to an extent. I do not believe that every doctor is bad, but it is sad the lack of information that they do have, and I wish that it was more widely taught. It is sad that you have to search hard for the...

mpvanwagner I want to take the time to let you know I read your response, but I think the other summed it up pretty well as to what I had to say. I don't want to keep beating the same bush here, so I am sure you have gotten the point. I also live in the US (Michigan to be...

mpvanwagner This is actually a good point, and we have switched doctors because of this. Really, the only doctor my son sees on a regular basis is a Chiropractor, but that is a completely different subject, and I am not sure that I could convince someone that that is a...

mpvanwagner Well, I think that vaccines do have a place, and no, not all of them are bad. I just think that is a personal choice, and I believe that people should be informed and allowed to make their own decisions. I respect the fact that you have faith in them, and I...

mpvanwagner I completely respect your post. I cannot say that vaccines do cause Autism, in fact in previous replies I have stated that it hasn't been proven, but at the same time it hasn't been proven that vaccines help as well. At least you are informed, and know... that...

mpvanwagner Haha, if we based our lives upon what the government allowed and what was really good for us, then I don't want to know what kind of world this would be right now. I am not saying that vaccines don't have benefits, or that they don't have a place in this...

mpvanwagner I do agree that food isn't the best, however, food is not the issue. How do you know that I don't feed my son only organic food, or something along those lines? But yet you still feel the need to compare two things that are completely different... no one is...
