I didn't vaccinate my son. This really doesn't effect me one way or another because I plan on private school.

But Why not let unvaccinated kids in schools? It's not like the vaccinated kids can catch any diseases right? They are vaccinated after all.

So you're just going to...hope your kid doesn't get a terrible disease that people shouldn't be getting in 2015? By not vaccinating your child, you're endangering the health and the life of children who can't get vaccinated.

Yep, I'm just going to hope. So far, so good.

I do hope your child doesn't become horribly sick and face potential death at such an early age because of a stupid decision like to not vaccinate.

I hope not either.

But I know what won't happen. Him having a peanut allergy or an increased risk of autism.

You really shouldn't ever reply to this topic again after making this comment.

You should really read up on the peanut allergy.

It didn't exist before people started getting vaccinated. Ask your parents, or grandparents if they ever had a classmate who was allergic to peanuts.

I genuinely hope you end up vaccinating your child. That's a very dangerous gamble to make.

I doubt I will.

Noone is getting friggin Hep B or Polio these days. Theres no point for the potential risks that vaccinations bring.

Do you know why nobody is getting polio these days?

It's because it was eradicated by the rise of immunizations. Jesus Christ, man.

So its gone?

Why would I make my son get a useless vaccination if its gone.

To make sure it stays gone.

It's a bit of a tricky one, considering how the usual reason for a child being vaccinated is a lack of education as to how vaccines work on the part of the parent. Kicking a child out of the one place where they have a chance to learn that vaccines don't infact cause autism/ebola/flatulence (Or all three) seems counter-intuitive.

Let's be real, though - little Johnny isn't going to tell mom and dad that he needs a vaccine. Even if he does, mom and dad will tell him it's against their beliefs.

I don't think they should punish an unvaccinated child for their parent's stupidity. It'll just lead them to collate into private schools or lenient public schools where a disease/infection will spread faster, or worse... homeschooling.

That said, I don't know what you could do to stop this spread of stupiditis other than forcing a kid to be vaccinated, which other than looking bad for the country also could have a lasting traumatic effect on the child, leading to them to divert their own children away from vaccinations in the future.
