Sorry appletrees

bruffin you're keen on conspiracy theories, I think you used the word conspirator earlier? It's interesting you choose to resort to them rather than for example concerning yourself with the sort of abuse and unpleasant approach adopted by a certain number of pro-vaccine campaigners. I've given an example above. What do you think of that? do you defend it?

I'm not the person who is banned and had hundreds if posts deleted because they don't know how to conduct themselves without shouting abuse everytime someone disagrees with me.

Neither am I, Bruffin - though again you are very fond of throwing accusations around. Again - do you defend the abusive post I quoted above? Yes or no would be great.

You know I'm not talking about disagreement, by the way. I'm talking about this:

Abuse: To assail with contemptuous, coarse, or insulting words

and I'm asking, appealing, for commitments from pro-vaccine campaigners that they will no longer use it, and will conduct themselves better on these boards.

We know you know the meaning of the word "abuse" it's one of your favorite words.

But I'm not sure you do - if you think disagreement = abuse. Not at all. Abuse is quite different, and I'm trying to get the pro-vaccine campaigners to commit to abandoning it.

How can MNHQ connect one poster's name with another? I'm intrigued. Surely, if I wanted several IDs on here, that wouldn't be difficult, would it?
Mind you, Ebay seem able to do it.

Ip address usually.

accuracy/geraniums you came on the thread yesterday evening to say that someone had asked for advice, and that pro-vax posters were, in your view, writing in a style that was not helping. You've since posted a further 11 times, each time to repeat that you don't like the way pro-vaxers express themselves. Do you think any of these posts has helped the op make her decision? Do you have anything constructive to add to the debate, or do you just wish to criticise posting styles?

Thanks, Bruffin.

huckhummmm hello. Op here. Has taken me ages to reply to the posts as I have a small baby who takes up so much time! who'd have thought! Ok I am doing it all. speaking to GP (have cancelled monday's jab appointment) and reading up on vaccines as much as possible. I don't agree that mothers intuition is rubbish as I think this may be what our sixth sense is actually for! Highly attuned to our children and sometimes it is almost like I can smell danger if there were to be any around the corner. Anyway that is another conversation, but thank you for all your help.

Did somebody say "mothers intuition is rubbish" or was that just an accusation?

PJ Was your comment a dig at the OP?

No, it was a question.

sorry if it came across as an insult just giving my experience and how it is for me.

How do you intuitively know which vaccine to delay?

Elaine When DS was born, my plan was to give him every jab (apart from the MMR) but start at age 6 months. It felt wrong to give them any earlier. Not scientifically wrong, just wrong. Criticise me, you may.

Tabitha instinct and intuition is just education and experience. As mentioned above most of mothers instinct that doctors go on is based on a mother knowing her child and its normal behaviour. A mother will know if they are acting differently something is wrong, but not what is wrong, unless they come across that problem before.
If you have read a lot of information that vaccines are wrongetc then your instinct will tell you wrongly or rightly that vaccination is wrong for your child.

I am a firm believer in listening to what your intuition tells you. However, I only and always use it in balance with cognitive reasoning. It would be foolish, in my eyes, to make a decision without a fair balance of both.

I hadn't read anything at all at the time of his birth about vaccinations. I looked at his red book quite some time after his birth (far too busy taking care of him to be interested in it prior to that in all honesty) and, when I saw the schedule, I decided it seemed (not that it was) to be too much too soon so I decided to go away and read about the various diseases and the risks associated with each.
