For some the risks to them are higher than the Vax. She is totally ok with us not doing it. I do not think she even does her own children. Now to convince my family....  And my friends that think letting there kids play with mine puts theirs at risk. But you'd think if the Vax's are so useful than they would feel ok that their kids are protected. Right?

Drop the backup doctor like a hot potato. If she's at your regular practice, have your regular doctor put a note in your kids' charts that they are NEVER to see the backup doc. She's a total quack. "All natural" vaccines? Now I've heard it all.

You are absolutely right that if vaccines are so effective, parents of vaccinated children shouldn't worry about their kids having contact with your unvaccinated ones. But people don't use logic when it comes to deciding about vaccines. They go by emotions and fear. They're scared because they've been well-trained to be scared.
Why are you discussing your children's vaccine status with anyone else? It's none of their business, not even your family's. Next time you can just say, "They've had all the shots they need" (not a lie, because they don't need any shots!) and change the subject. If they won't drop it, say "I prefer not to discuss my children's private medical information with you. Pass the salt?" You might sound like a broken record but they'll shut up after awhile. What else can they do? It's none of their business!
One last thing: you can always give a vaccine, but you can NEVER take it back. Once you allow someone to inject your child with the contents of those vials, you can never take it out of their little body. It will be with them always. In addition, vaccine-available diseases are treatable by modern medical means. Vaccine reactions are not. Something to think about.
Don't rush into vaccinating. Read, read, and read some more. There's no hurry, no matter how much they try to pressure you or convince you otherwise.
