Good points, Tricia. Yeah, the mob (or herd of sheeple) is now blaming moms who choose not to vaccinate their kids with every outbreak of kid diseases on the planet.
Somehow, they don't make the connection between believing everyone should vaccinate for everything and believing their own kids are now immune, since they vaccinated them for everything! If you believe in vaccination and did it to your kids, why worry about what others do? Your kids are immune. Right?
Of course, that's not happening, as vaccinated kids are getting the infectious diseases they were vaccinated against, sometimes at higher rates than their unvaccinated chums!
And on sound sleep, this could be a post all its own. To the extent that you understand the amazing mechanism of maintaining health we all have innately in us, you can sleep soundly without worrying about the big bad wolf at the door (disease).
