Steve	Child Neglect by Any Other Name	2020-09-17		.txt	text/plain	2285	120	54	Trying to "engage" families in order to educate and convince them of the wisdom of immunization is fine for the parents who want information and are willing to accept guidance, but this approach is clearly wasted on the entrenched vaccine deniers. But most Western families who fail to immunize their children know about vaccines and have ready access to physicians and nurses who could clearly explain their risks and benefits. It is time to stop the political correctness and "science speak." Parents should have the right to raise their children in accordance with their own preference, culture and religious beliefs, provided that their approach does not substantially increase the child's odds of an avoidable illness or injury. Physicians must rise with one voice and say "enough!" By even considering the premise that vaccine denial can be a reasonable choice by a rational individual, we become enablers of child neglect.	./cache/cord-032017-h0cj4izx.txt	./txt/cord-032017-h0cj4izx.txt
