revised rant

Rant
 
I decided to talk about the measles parties because of what has recently happened with the outbreak we have had. When I saw the article about the measles parties it really got to me because that is just something very irresponsible. I'm sure any other parent would agree with me in that it isn't such a smart idea to do something like that, I mean except maybe the parents thinking about throwing the parties.
 
Measles isn't  something you would want to expose your child too. There can some severe consequences that can come from a child catching them as of what I have heard from the news or other people. Why would someone want to risk their child's life just to avoid the vaccine.
 
Measles are way worse than chicken pox, they might look similar in some way but they have total different outcomes. Measles can cause I child's death especially if they aren't vaccinated or if they are really young(babies). Babies are more likely to have more severe symptoms but that doesn't mean any other child wont react to it the same as a baby just because they are older.
 
 I think this is a good rant to share in the KinderCare Facebook page because that way parents can hear about these measles parties and hopefully avoid them, if they are smart. Or maybe some parents can do something about these parties. Well at least the ones in California since that's where these parties were first heard of.
 
I really hope that no parent ever thinks about exposing their child to measles just to avoid a vaccine.

  1. So, did you decide NOT to share on FB after reading the clarifying article? Can you post about that? Thanks!

  2. You could have posted about the misreading ... helping others to see that you easily believed, maybe helping others to avoid the misunderstanding?
