Infants should be all vaccinations atleast within the first year of their birth. This is to ensure that they won't be affected by diseases of any kind in the later part of their life. It is the utmost duty of the parents to see to it that their infants are properly administered all the vaccinations and other drops.

My first step mother (there have been a few) has a grandchild who was completely normal until about three years old. Then he started displaying autistic symptoms. It has been determined that he had an allergic reaction to the vacinations. He will never be a normal child again. His doctors now say that if he was to have recieved the vacinations further apart then he may not have had this reaction. I will get my children vacinated when I have them, but I will NOT let the doctor do them all at once, they will be spread out in order to protect my children. That child will NEVER be able to completely live on his own or function like a normal person, if it could have been prevented then why would I take that chance with my children?

Sorry, I disagree completely. Not only have we not given our daughter ANY vaccines, we don't plan on it, either. Schools here can allow a child to enter on a vaccination waiver due religion, philosophy or medical reasons and we plan on entering her into school with a waiver. I'm not going to pump my child full of toxic sludge to prevent a disease that hasn't been around in 100 years. The reasons we don't have disease anymore or at least not like we used to is due to sanitary living conditions, not the vaccine. Not bathing and drinking the same water we use to cook and go potty in has helped out a lot more than vaccines. Washing hands and keeping sick kids home also helps. The subject of childhood vaccinations, and especially getting so many all at once, which for more than a century has been a matter of acute controversy both in medical and lay circles, is, fortunately, one on which anyone capable of appreciating figures can form a sound opinion. I'm not going to risk my DD"s life on something that has been proven time and again to be toxic. With current legislation pending, New Jersey would be the first U.S. state to make the vaccination of children required by law. This means that those parents who refuse to participate in such vaccination programs would be labeled "criminals" and arrested at gunpoint. Their children would then be forced by the government to get pumped full of toxic sludge just because the government says so. The health experts in New Jersey backing these vaccines claim there's absolutely no evidence showing that the chemicals used in the vaccines -- which include trace amounts of neurotoxic mercury -- are in any way harmful or linked to autism. These are the same people, of course, who say that mass fluoridation of public water supplies with a toxic waste chemical misnamed "fluoride" is also perfectly safe.

The sanitation explanation for the lack of disease theory has been thouraly debunked. sorry. Take for example New Zeland where they cut way back on vaccinations because of the Autism scare. Once the vaccinations rates fell below 75% they found not only that the rate of austism did not decline with the race of vaccination, but also that the rate of deaths and disfigurment caused my the diseases the the vaccinations would have prevented increase rapidly as the diseases were again allowed to pass through the population. A simular thing happened in Japan and is happening currently in certain sub populations in the us who do not receive vaccinations. One friend of mine who belleived as you do and did not vaccinate his child once said to me, "Well if I am wrong it is me not you, so you don't have to worry about it" There are two problems with this thinking. First is it is not him, it is his child. Second, as seen in the New Zeland study, while most of the deaths were is unvaccinated people, there were also a number of deaths in people who were vaccinated, but for whom the vaccination did not take. These people are typically protected by what is called "Population Immunity" which means that if no one around you has the virus, you can't catch it from them. When people stop immunizing themselves they not only put themselves at danger, but they put those around them in danger.

I disagree. There are many real and researched reasons why it is better to spread out or avoid vaccinations. There are several schools of thought about this but life experience has taught me that I would rather spread them out then push all those man made mixes into such little bodies so fast. Research this before deciding.... talk to other parents that have gone through the good and bad of it.
