The Marvellous Health of Unvaccinated Children

June 26, 2010

I haven't been here forever, but this girl in my English Comp class is writing

her research paper on vaccines and already it seems she is all for vaccines.

Well, I gave her some website suggestions (including this one) and really hopes

she checks them out. The problem is that parents first turn to the CDC website

which convinces them with false or twisted info that vaccination is safe and

effective and scares them into thinking their child will die without them.

Again I want to say how happy I am to have found this site when I was pregnant

and researching vaccines. My son is now 3 years and 3 months and still has

never needed any medicines or antibiotics. He is in perfect health and is very

happy. I'm so glad I had this resource to help me make the decision to not

vaccinate him.
