Hey A, I think our 7 year olds should get together and have a conversation.  ;)  Sometimes a little common philosophy goes a long way at this age!   T is scared of needles.  So vaxing now is a non-issue. But...

Yeah see, that's what I hate about abx.  They get sick with other stuff while they're on it.   Thanks for all the recommendations, folks.  I actually do own that book!  I read it years ago, but my mind is a...

I talk about it less and less because of the reactions we've received from my family and from a few others... some of them scary.  (A few people love to threaten CPS when confronted with a non-vaxer.)  But that said, my close...
