Any parent that does not dig and do their own research (thus coming to logical conclusion) and gives their child this vaccine is an idiot. Healthy children very very rarely die from Covid, most children are only symptomatic for a few days. Those that do die have other health conditions. And have to look at pre-Covid statistics because isolation screwed everything up. Children are far more likely to die from drowning, accidents, flu, any other illnesses or conditions than they are from Covid. RN here- do not believe these blatant lies!!!
For DECADES, the family was the basic social unit. It wasn't perfect, but the family -lead by parents concerned for their children - worked exceptionally well as a learning AND social unit. In this context, Mom and Dad worked like mad to provide for and protect the kids..."don't talk to strangers"..."we have curtains because it's nobody's business what goes on in here"..."sex Ed? You will be out "sick" that day and we will go out to the range."
Johnny and Mary grew up, avoided (and maybe mocked) the radicals on campus, started their own family, and repeated their parents' denial of societal preying. The times changed but the message was the same - "if the doctor asks if we have a gun, tell him no (it's not a lie because we have twelve) and I'll find a new doctor."
Somewhere along the line (I think it was with societal acceptance of divorce), that morphed into It Takes A Village. The parents succumbed and we lost an intergenerational transfer of a GFY mindset when it came to outsider influence in the family. Now, instead of a kid wiping out on his bike and Dad telling the kid "go show your mother those cuts and scrapes and she'll fix it up" we get a child with a paper cut and "we must go to the ER."
Experts rule the home....nutritionists, child psychologists, family counselor, anti-anxiety meds (for junior and Dad, if he hasn't abandoned the family). And most of all, the clergy has been replaced by THE DOCTOR.
Now, 80MM+ Trump voters tell us that the individualism mindset IS alive and well. But an increasing number of centrists have succumbed to the siren song of collectivism. Public school is good, because it provides daycare while Mom holds three jobs. But if Johnny doesn't get the messenger RNA shot, he isn't allowed in school. It's easy to see what Mom is gonna do.
I'm prayerful that centrists wake up, and seek out that in-tact but "nutty" homeschooling family that never answers the phone when an unknown number calls, never answers the door for strangers, and ignores pollsters with clipboards at the Mall...but they have massive Christmas parties AND their kids aren't messed up, and they're not on Facebook...Whatsupwiththat?...
Until then, 4-in-10 parents hitting the pause button on their child being part of a clinical trial is about as good as it's gonna get.
