Parents magazine vaccine article.

June 30, 2008

You know, I meant to post the same exact thing. I saw that article

and I was soooo mad. It did not list ONE negative aspect of

vaccines...as if there is not one side effect or even possibility of

something going wrong. It was totally, totally one-sided. I thought

it was very irresponsible.

On a side note, I got a free subscription to Parents with a Boppy

pillow- and every time their articles just annoy me. The last one

that drove me up a wall was one that insinuated that cloth diapers

are not better for the environment and difficult to use. My friend

said, well, their some of their advertisers are disposable diaper

companies...she's right. Their magazine is just way too " main stream "

for me. Argh. I am going to write them about that article.

I also saw this horrible article and ripped it out and stuck it in my

book The Sanctity of Human Blood by Tim O'Shea. My intentions are

when I have some spare time to write rebuttals to each of the

statements on this article and send to friends and family...or

perhaps the magazine itself. I remember when I had my first child 6

years ago, I loved Parents magazine (as I was naive and

impressionable and thought Parents was a good reference). Sadly, I

look back (4 children later and lots of waking up in the process) and

see what a mainstream and misguided magazine it really is. I can see

how first time moms can get roped in and never learn to listen to

their instincts especially when they have pediatricans and magazines

such as this to " teach " them how to raise their children. I once

subscribed to this but never renewed...course now they just send it

free (can't figure that one out). So, I see this " free " propaganda

piece as just another... and effective... way to capture parents and

children for life.

Yep, " Parents Magazine " is a trash mag in my house... even my hubby knows to

just throw it away when we get our " free " one that we did NOT subscribe to

every month... it won't even grace my coffee table. I don't want any

visitor of mine to think for even a second that anything in that mag is

worth reading. Mothering Magazine is the one on MY coffee table!

From the " Parents Magazine " article:

Q. Can all of these vaccines overload my baby's immune system?

A. Your infant is already exposed to thousands of germs on a daily basis

(whether or not he's in childcare). Even if your baby got 11 shots at the

same time, he would need to use only about 0.1 percent of his immune system

to respond. The goal is to protect your child as quickly as possible from

diseases that young children are most vulnerable to. Even though the number

of shots has gone up over the years, the load on a baby's immune system has

actually gone down thanks to refinements in the number of specific antigens

in vaccines.

------------------------------------

I want to know what " science " they are basing this information on. 0.1% of

his immune system? HUH???

There is NO science when it comes to the allopathic medical profession.

It is all conclusions.
