Tuesday

It basically said grandparents needed to get involved.
I've felt like this for a while, and I think one of the problems here (the anti-vax stupidity is the overarching one, of course) is that we've had what? At least 3 generations of parents now that have never had these diseases BECAUSE THEY WERE VACCINATED, and have no idea how miserable they are. Why would someone put their kid through chicken pox, or any of the childhood diseases, if they didn't have to? None of them had friends in school in leg braces. They have no idea what an iron lung is. They have no idea about any of it.
