Can you put down your pitchfork long enough to discuss the root causes of the anti-vax problem?

[seabeyond]

171. 17 yrs ago, my son had a reaction to 2 year old, zillion shots. late at night, he went into autistic

behaviors. he had always been different. i FEEL that the shot just triggered something within him.

but as a parent, as a mama, i know it had to do with the vacs.

no. we parents who children are effected do not TRUST the medical community on this issue.

(i could get much further into the subject having studied it after his reaction, but i am busy in personal life and do not have time)

i continued giving all his vacs. he continued to react. we have dealt with his different for his lifetime. we find tools and understanding, for him to excel regardless. and i gave the vacs to my next son. who did not have the same reaction.

i got a repeated vac of rubella (17 yrs ago) cause mine wore off, and my blood type so rare, if i were to get rubella it would affect any donors giving me blood. good reasoning, i think.

i have been in the discussion in the past. the mere fact, that i make a statement has allowed attack, ridicule, scorn, and a whole lot of nasty dumped on me.

i remember one conversation, with someone in the field, that finally admitted that yes, a very small handful of children do have issues. but for the good of the whole.

reality is, .... when talking to that one child affected, or parents of that one child, they are not gonna slink off to the corner, tail in between legs, cause a mob of people threw rocks.
