Guest guest Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 No do not sign that. Read it first. You do not have to sign it. When you sign it, you take the pediatrician off the hook and YOU are responsible for every little thing that can concieveably be blamed on YOU for not vaccinating your children. It is not necessary to have on file. READ IT. You may need another pediatrician, however, since your pediatrician may fire you if you do not sign it. --- aheart4family <aheart4family@...> wrote: > Has anyone ever signed one of these?

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 > Off the hook for what? Are they concerned that if your child gets a disease for which children are vaccinated that you can say " my doctor never told me to get the vaccination " ? Because that sounds like a reasonable fear to me on their part. How would signing this form enable the pediatrician to blame you for something unrelated to the vaccination, as you suggest below? -Angie > When you sign it, you take the pediatrician off the > hook and YOU are responsible for every little thing > that can concieveably be blamed on YOU for not > vaccinating your children.

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 Read the form and you will see. It says, as I recall, that you understand that vaccinations prevent childhood diseases which can be dangerous, etc., and you are assuming responsibility, absolving the doctor who is trying to get your kid vaxed at all costs. Just doing their job. --- Totten <afaltotten@...> wrote: > > > Off the hook for what?

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 I believe I signed it. By my signature, I wrote that I do not vaccinate for religious reasons, not the ones listed on the form that make me look ignorant and neglectful................Anita aheart4family <aheart4family@...> wrote: Has anyone ever signed one of these?

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 I'm actually OK with taking full responsibility for my child and letting the doctor " off the hook " as you say. The real problem with that form is that it has mom and dad " admit " (as if we believed it to be so) that we are putting our children at risk for disease when in fact the opposite is true. Oh, and they work for us, so it is virtually impossible for them to fire us. IMO, they would be " quiting " which makes it all the easier for us to move.;~).......Anita maureen gradvohl <mrsvoltaire@...> wrote: No do not sign that. Read it first. You do not have to sign it.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 I know that doctors " work " for us. I am simply implying here the uniqueness of the patient/physician relationship. You may have confidence in your plumber, but you have faith in your doctor. The relationship between a doctor and and a patient is said to be a " sacred relationship " . Yet the doctor will turn on you, quit, and report you to the government. When it comes to vaccinations, the true relationship is between the doctor and the government, both of whom have colluded using their respective powers over the population to be sure virtually everyone is vaccinated. --- Anita Durney <mydurney@...> wrote: > I'm actually OK with taking full responsibility for > my child and letting the doctor " off the hook " as > you say.

I guess the trick is to find a doctor who is wise enough to respect the parents choice not to vaccinate and not let that interfere with why the child has been brought to the office in the first place. For us it is mostly annual physical exams required by the school. Any doctor who is looking to cause trouble for a family because of a mother's informed choice to not vaccinate her child and who is a threat to that family staying together as a whole is a RAT. We need to be able to smell those rats from the start. I have never run into this problem. Though almost every ped I haved worked with over the years doesn't agree with me, they were still able to seperate that from giving attention and care to my children. Now if I were to bring my children in with one of the " preventable " childhood diseases, I might be faced with a different relationship. Maybe it's because I live in NY, but I think there are more open-minded doctors out there than we often give credit for. In many many cases, it is how we present ourselves to the doctors that determines the reactions and results we get. They are not all hopelessly indoctrinated into allopathic medicine, but God help us if we run into one that is in ER......Anita --------------------------------- Access over 1 million songs - Music Unlimited.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Is this something standard if you chose not to vaccinate? My daughters are unvaccinated, and their doctor has never even blinked an eye at it and I have never heard of this form? Angie Has anyone ever signed one of these?

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Angie - I have only encountered it at the current ped's office (it's been at least 4 years) I am using. It is a rather large group as compared to the smaller, more independant peds I have used in the past. But I don't know if that has anything to do with it. Nobody is blinking an eye otherwise. Because my reason for not vaxing is religious, it has no place in the ped's office for discussion. That works out very nicely for me in terms of avoiding debates.....Anita danerescue6 <tsthumper1@...> wrote: Is this something standard if you chose not to vaccinate?
