Good day

I would like everyone's opinions on vaccinating toddlers.
The reason that this has not been posted to the random discussion forum is because of the
reports released regarding a link between vaccines and autism.
Are these reports trustworthy and a reason for concern?
Or does the benefit outweigh the risk?

The risks involved in not vaccinating your child far outweigh any side effects through the vaccination, so really the decision is an easy one. Also, a lot of child centres won't accept children who haven't been vaccinated.

Good, even if you get an allergic reaction (unless it's really severe) it's worth getting them.

I believe children should be vaccinated it's obvious that they work , I just feel they should be done at different times not all at once ,spacing them apart is how it used to be done,some children might have am immune problem that is not known if there is a way to check for that it could help,my own personal and unpopular opinion is my grandsons autism was caused by his vaccine ,he was doing fine with everything ,when he got the vaccine everything changed almost immediately ,stopped talking ,even the way he ate ,everything he knew and learned was gone,coincidence ? maybe but I don't see how,again this is my opinion

Good. The benefits are far greater than the risks, as seen by the fact that many childhood diseases are nearly eradicated in the US (only as long as people continue to vaccinate their children). And the link between vaccines and Autism has been completely disproven. Also, I can't help but be slightly offended that someone would rather their child die from the measles than develop Autism.
