Please do some research. I don't think that all of the vaccines are necessary, especially the one's given at birth. They are coming out with so many new ones each year. The eye ointment is given for STD's, so if you don't have one you should not be mandated to have it. It will blind or blurr you childs vision temperaraly. The vitamin K shot increases the risk of childhood Leukemis by 80% (and God said on the 8th day we will have all the Vit k we need). These are just a few to get you thinking. Please research all the pros and cons before vaccinating your child.

I agree with everything you say! We no longer vaccinate, I thought it was something that was required, but found out nope it's not! My son is very healthy, if he gets sick, he gets over it so fast compared to vaccinated children. I'm really happy with my decision! Plus, the human diploid cells being used in some vaccines-well that's just disguisting!

None of my brood are vacinated; when they were in public school for a short time they were so astounded that I never had them vacinated and went so far as to say that they couldn't allow them to come to school unless they were. Well, my lawyer set them straight; after that, there were no problems and I filled out a simple form saying that it is against my beliefs and that was the end of it.
I am not saying that it is wrong to vacinate your child but personally, I don't see any benefit to it. None of them have ever been ill beyond a common cold or flu and they are all healthy and growing like bad weeds. Some may argue with you that you 'need' to do this ... these are the same people that haven't picked up a medical publication in over twenty years and still think you get hemroids from sitting on cold concrete.

haha I always get people telling me my son can't go to school if I don't vaccinate. They always say too "well the doctors know best", I like to tell them my son's pediatrician agreed with me, so he knows best too! It's sad that people research diaper bags more than what they put into their childrens bodies. My son also is very healthy, I am amazed at how fast his body recovers from a cold compared to his vaccinated cousins. They all got a cold together, my son coughed for a few days-his cousins got sinus infections!

I hear ya but what are you going to do when it comes to sending your child to school? Just to get into preschool at the age of 2 you have to have all the vaccinations. Also, some people don't think they have an STD but then it just so happens that they really do. That's pretty scary. I hear what you are saying though.

Your children can go to school and not have vaccinations, depending on state you can get a medical (some children are allergic to ingredients in vaccines or previously have had a reaction), philosophical, or religious exemption. They are listed by state at www.vaccinetruth.com We get a religious exemption since we don't agree with aborted fetal cells being used in some vaccines, they are listed as human diploid cells, you should check that out!

I absolutely agree. Prior to my daughter's conception; I hadnt given much thought to childhood immunizations. But once I picked up a book (and not the ridiculous pamphlet at the Doctors office) I quickly realized that there were significant dangers involved.
I have a healthy, happy, beautiful 7 month old who is completely VACCINATION FREE...and for good reasons...too numerous to list!

it definitely is something to think about. my ped never gave me an option of not vaccinating and never really gave me a choice but to vaccinate my daughter. i should have done my research first. very good information! thank you!

Do you have any links for information on the Vit. K and Leukemia link? If so I would love to read them.
I am so thankful that the esearch on vaccines is being seen by more and more parents. I choose not to vaccinate my children after assessing the risks.
