Inoculation Decisions
Choosing what to do about vaccines (yes, you do have a choice!) is about as personal and controversial as your views on war or abortion.
There’s lots of propaganda out there from drug companies, public health officials, and the medical community. Everyone has any opinion from your child’s doctors and teachers to the mommies at the play date or the random guy in the grocery store who saw your kid sneeze.
Here’s 2 books I suggest checking out before making your vaccine decisions:
The Parents’ Concise Guide to Childhood Vaccinations by Lauren Feder
The Vaccine Guide by Randall Neustaedter
Please put some time and effort into this one, and don’t just blanket-ly take any one person’s advice. Alternative medicine can provide some great remedies to treat many of the illnesses that have inoculations, but as the parent, you need to feel comfortable with the pros, cons, and what-if’s of each of your decisions for each vaccine and its related conditions.
