vaccinations

[Guest guest]

This may be too loaded of a question for people with enough problems

already to deal with, but has anyone felt great reluctance to

vaccinate their younger children knowing that the older children had

what might be called predispositions to neuro/psychological

disorders? I have not had my 2 yr old vaccinated since his 6 mo

checkup. I just feel very reluctant about it, but at the same time

feeling like I'm taking a risk not having him vaccinated. Maybe I'll

just wait until he is older. I feel like I can't handle anymore

psychological problems(with the two older girls 12 and 9,and the 4th

child a 4 yo boy who has stuttering and lots of fears though he's a

pretty happy kid). Right now the 2 yr old and the 7 yr old seem the

most average or unaffected or whatever you could call it. So as it

stands the 12 yr old has had all vaccinations (with severe reactions

as infant)including hepatitis and boosters. The 2 yr old has not been

vaccinated since 6 mo and the 4, 7 and 9 yr olds I am reluctant to

vaccinate further for hepatitis or chicken pox. I guess there is no

hard evidence for risks from vaccination for kids predisposed to

neurological problems, because you can't usually know they have those

problems until they're older.
