So we have decided to delay giving dd her mmr vaccinations. she has glue ear and persistant coughs and colds and we have decided to delay giving it to her till she is up and running a bit better - even it thats a few years down the line.
So this morning my dr started giving me a hard time over it saying that she will catch this that and the other and then she will be infertile and her children might be brain damaged and do I want that on my concience. How would that make me feel knowing it was my fault etc etc.
I just nodded and smiled but Oh god inside I was boiling with rage. I so wanted to tell him to bugger off but refrained.

Even ignoring personal opinion & bias, the reporting on that link makes for sad, disturbing reading. A case of "how did we get to this?". Quite upsetting. Thanks for the link.
