SICK AND WRONG!!!!!!

well think about who this will appeal to. I do find it interesting that a holistic pediatrician has this on their page however. that is a joke.

You couldn't give me a 20 dollar coupon to McDonalds for doing anything! My DS is 3 and whenever we drive by a McDonalds he points and says "Donald's has yucky food mommy!"

[naturallymommy]

oh sorry i didn't specify they were saying how sucky it was cos one of their clients had gotten it they werent condoning. and not even the mcdonalds but to bribe with anything is wrong i think... they should be educating the parents to make an informed decision instead of bribing grr and yeah we recently went to get ds a rio toy cos he loved the movie but we just bought it for like 1.50 at the drive thru haha.

For just a minute I thought this was a Holiday helpers thread title, and then realized it is the wrong time of year. Wow!

[Mommy2Austin]

Even my friend, who fully vaccinates her daughter, was like WTF?!

Way to move them sheep. The people that are all excited about this "promo" are the ones that blindly follow everything their drs. do or say without ever researching it. It's sad.

Oh good.  McDonald's is showing concern about children's health. 

[Funny Face]

sets you up for a lifetime of good health.

Yup....They probably don't know what's in those McDonald's hamburgers either.

Well, if a gift card to McDonalds is reason enough to vaccinate, I suspect those children *should* be vaccinated.  Children with poor diets tend to also have poor immune systems.

[Arianwen1174]

Wow. That's despicable! Wish I could say I'm surprised, sigh...

[treegardner]

Holy cow!

 

[amnesiac]

I find it interesting that a health insurance company is encouraging fast food consumption.

[treegardner]

I find that intriguing too.

 

[mama1219]

Gross. Just gross.

[nia82]

If I do extra boosters and experimental shots for my kid, will I then get a supersized meal? /sarcasm end

[mom2mygirls]

that is just insane!

[MammaG]

Now, if they were offering a vaccination for diabetes, that might make some sense .

 Aghhhhhh! Since when does McDonald's support healthy lives anyway? They are one of the last places I would ever take advice from! Two words....Food, Inc.
