Happy Good Friday everyone.
I need opinion as I've had a few mixed opinions from my real life friends.
I've recently became friends with the new partner of one of my neighbours.
Everything was going well until I told her I had just came home from getting my dc4 immunisations (8 weeks)
She gasped in horror and said she couldn't believe I would inject poisons in my baby and none of her children have had the immunisations as it's "poison" and now she thinks different of me as the "universe" created our children perfect without "man made" chemicals injected into them!
(She is very new age in belief and I follow Christianity)
*
I was quite taken aback. *
I just replied "how can you think the immunisations are poison and full of chemicals and cause blah blah blah but you're quite happy with man made formula milk" she responded saying I'm being ridiculous and walked off.
(Let me just say, I have no issue with formula milk. I just wanted to use it as an example because it is man made"
But my friends have told me I'm out of order for using what she feeds her baby as an example.
Why shouldn't I be able to defend myself when she's personally attacked my decision to give my children immunisations?
I'm not in the wrong am I?
