my son gets kicked out of school May 1st, for not having chicken pox vaccine

AFGW...Honey - you deserve a tip!.....great questions - I was wondering the same....very well put!

They are passing or already have passed laws that say if you don't vaccinate your child or children they will be taken from you!!!!!!


Be careful!


There is also a legal form that I have seen, a couple years ago that you can fill out and turn into the school that somehow exempts your child or children.

Worth looking into.

Thank you :). I am also having issues with my daughters' doctors pushing me to get them the gardasil vaccine. Nope, not happening.

Thank you

Thanks everyone. An update...I spoke to the school nurse. She told me to fill out a new exemption form (might be that his is too old), and also send a letter stating that he already had chicken pox and the year he had it.

Also, not sure if I said this already or not, but he did have his first chicken pox vaccine when he was a toddler and got chicken pox a week or so later. It was the worst case I have ever seen. There wasn't a spot on him that wasn't covered in it.

I hate to say this but, with the Chicken Pox--when I was a kid everyone had it, so no big deal--as a country we were protected from terrorism from within and without on this one.

But now, we are raising a whole generation of kids on a bum vaccine that might not work--no good immunity--this next generation will be sitting ducks for Chicken Pox terrorism--just like the native americans were who had their populations decimated by blankets infected with pox.--OK, small pox was the worst--but still.

"Native populations of the Americas lacked immunity to the infectious diseases that ravaged Europe and Asia for centuries. Sparse populations on the Plains and pristine valleys of the Rocky Mountains prevented a buildup of communicable diseases. The "white man" diseases…measles, chicken pox, typhus, typhoid fever, dysentery, scarlet fever, diphtheria, and after 1832, cholera…devastated the American Indian. Lumped together, these diseases did not equal the havoc of smallpox in terms of number of deaths, realignment of tribal alliances, and subsequent changes in Canadian and American Indian Cultures."

"Smallpox in the New World:
Some of the African slaves brought by Columbus to be used on the sugar plantation of the West Indies carried the smallpox virus. In 1495, fifty-seven to eighty percent of the native population of Santa Domingo, and in 1515, two-thirds of the Indians of Puerto Rico were wiped out by smallpox. Ten years after Cortez arrived in Mexico, the native population dropped from twenty-five million to six million five hundred thousand a reduction of seventy-four percent."

"Prior to the arrival of Europeans, various sources estimate native population in North and South America at ninety to one hundred million. It is impossible to arrive at the number of Indians in the Americas killed by European diseases with smallpox the deadliest by far. Even the most conservative estimates place the deaths from smallpox above sixty-five percent (Bray)."

you can get a waiver for religious reasons.

Write you out a letter in short saying the child will be homeschooled effective May 01. Sign and date it. Carry it to the principle and that is it. Seek online schools.

So true!

Update?
