I mean you are walking around unvax people all the time without even knowing it. It's not my place to judge and my vax child should be protected from their unvax child anyways. 🤷♀️
Would you stop being friends with someone for being antivax?
I met this mom and we have kids similar in age so we’ve been having play dates. However she recently told me she doesn’t believe in vaccines and it blew me out of the water. She was saying how they’re toxic and kill people. I’m questioning if I should remain friends with her. Would you?

I agree. The only time I’m “stingy” with my kids around unvaccinated people(my husbands family doesn’t vaccinate, although my husband now has had some of his shots, TDaP being the most important) is under 2 months before my kids can be vaccinated, although our immune systems are supposed to protect them for that time.

If that was the only thing that i had against her then yes i would still be friends with her. Its not my place to judge what she chooses to do or not do for her children the same way she cant choose what i do with mine. As long as there is a level of mutual respect for each other and each others opinions it shouldnt matter

100% couldn’t be friends with someone lacking in intelligence/intentionally ignorant to that level. Plus, they put other people at risk, so I’m not about to invite someone into my life that doesn’t care about others.

You hang out with nonvaxers in the grocery store, your kids will go to school with them, almost every American adult is under vaccinated. I would treat it like any other topic I disagree on with a friend and agree to disagree. I am saying this even as a mom of someone immunocompromised that cannot be vaccinated. I have no idea the vaccination statuses of the people my daughter goes to school with and it’s not my business.

I cannot in good conscience let my child play with a child who is unvaccinated for the sake of the unvaccinated child.My kid could be carrying something that is not harmful to them since they are vaccinated that could harm the other child since they are not.Losing a friendship is better than losing a child from a preventable illness.🤷🏻♀️

Of course not, but if I have a child coming into my home that child’s health and safety would be in my hands.

Hey! I understand your point of view, I just have a question... if you’re at the park and there are 10 kids there ... do you talk to every parent and ask if they’re vaccinated before letting your child play? (This is not a hate comment, just concerned) xo

Your kids best friends at school could be unvaccinated and you wouldn’t know. All they have to do is fill out a form stating it’s for religious purposes and they can still enter public school. If your child is vaccinated they should be protected and that’s all you can control. I mean, she didn’t need to even tell you and you’d have never known.

The vaccines dont contain fetal cells. 🤷♀️ a few use an old cell line during development which is mrc-5. None of the covid vaccines used that line for development. HEK 293 cell line was used in development of the AstraZeneca but the finished product also contains no fetal cells.

I was trying to make the point that the ingredient that may occur in vaccines that you have an ethical problem with can come from an ethical source. Ones belief in God and benefitting from science are not mutually exclusive—a person can do both.

The word abortion is medically used for pregnancy loss not just by choice. I was very upset when having d&c after a mc to see paperwork at the hospital used the word abortion. But back to the subject of vaccinating, I won’t have my kids or myself suffer or die from any disease that’s been easily preventable by getting vaccinated, but to each their own. My original comment was just to tell the OP that they may very well be around unvaccinated ppl without knowing it so why end the friendship in question.

I can’t have friends that are THAT stupid. Who knows what else they’ll risk if they’re willing to willingly risk their own child’s life, because of unproven claims. No thanks, keep that over there. Thankfully all my friends or family believe in vaccines and are up to date. Also walking past someone who is unvaccinated is NOT the same as spending time with unvaccinated people, idk why that’s always brought up when it comes to these things.
