Re: FYI: Read this

Hi Phyllis -

I read the article and as usual, this guy has all old info regarding

the MMR controversy. Also, he doesn't mention the newest study at the

Univ of Minn regarding vaccines and autism and immune reactions. The

study he quotes that refutes the connection was picked appart as

being faulty just after it was published. Also, he fails to mention

the in the UK the government called off a 3 million pound advertising

campagne to show how safe the MMR was because recent studies are

showing that it isn't safe. God forbid that this guy actually does

his homework.

As far as the sippy cup issue - who knows... I do worry about getting

those clean enough and also I had heard that they are not great for

kids with language delays - I think it is something about sucking

that does not promote good pronunciation. Who knows.....

Anyway - this guy is a typical " these people are all wacko " type of

reporter. His article is designed for people to say, " what's with all

the frivolous law suits these days... " He isn't doing any real

investigative reporting - He just wants a reaction.

This is typical of scare tactic journalism that seems to be rampant

these days.

Unfortunately, this is what everyone I know will be quoting to me for

the next several weeks..... sigh.... Oh well. I keep arming myself

with the truth and hoping that it prevails.

I think it was very insulting to all parents.
