1. I don't believe they are created to protect people, but rather to make a ton of money and I don't care to make people money when I see none of it.
2. I am highly concerned about the studies done to ensure their safety especially when combined with all the other vaccines - I don't feel there has been adequate time to ensure their long term safety on their own but especially when combined with the others and I don't care for my children to be guinea pigs.
3. I'd rather teach my children how to support their immune system and practice good hygeine than to teach them that a shot means they are safe. None of the vaccines are guaranteed (just look at the pertussis cases year to year!) but they do come with risks because of the ridiculous crap put in them. Supporting ones immune system and being smart about where you go and who you are around however doesn't have those same risks even if they aren't guaranteed either that you won't get sick (but really, a healthy immune system does allow for you to get a bit sick... keeps it strong)
