My advice to people is become educated before you take any irreversable actions.  Once you put a vaccine or other substance into your body it is very difficult to get it back out again.  Know what is in the vaccine.  Below is a table of vaccines listing the ingredients from the CDC website.  Or you can check it yourself by going to www.cdc.gov and putting “Vaccine Excipient and Media Summary” in the search engine.

Vaccination Waivers

Most states allow parents to sign a waiver instead of having their child vaccinated before entering school.  Michigan citizens supported a bill several years ago and now we have the right to sign a waiver form instead of having our children vaccinated.  We have the right to choose this option for religious, medical or just plain don’t believe in vaccinations.  We here in Michigan have one of the more liberal state vaccination laws.  Although in recent years the legislature has passed laws making it more difficult to get the exemption form.


Check out your state to find out about the laws regarding vaccinations.  Each state is different.

There are many books on the market today which outline the pro’s and con’s of vaccinations.  Listed below are a few of the ones I have read and recommend to parents.
