100% agree.

But you're a non parent trying to preach. Step down.

I'd rather look like a dick than look like someone who stands in silence as toddlers die any day. Being a parent doesn't give you the magical ability to not act like a manslaughtering idiot.

I've been without an upstairs neighbor for the past 3 months and it's been glorious. Really dreading the day new people move in, especially if they have kids (it's a two bedroom apartment - the chances are high)

When it comes to the possibility of a parent endangering the lives of other people's children (such as by not getting them vaccinated) then I think it's ridiculous to say that the only people who can say anything about it are other parents.

Ok. This is a bit douchey though as a non parent.

Really, try to change your approach to science. You're only hurting yourself with this "enlightenment".

So douchey for me not to want someone's child to get sick or die. Man I'm a prick.

Like I said, looking like an ******* to oversensitive people is a small price to pay when a parent is putting their child's life at risk.

We agree totally for what it's worth. Just think the attitude of the anti-anti vaccinaters isn't doing any good.
