Activities
Forced shots?
- Do an Internet news search using the phrase "Parents Ordered to Court for Kids' Shots"
- Read at least two of the articles found
- Answer the following questions:
- What did your search produce?
- Have you ever been forced to have an injection against your wishes? If so, when? If you resisted and were successful, please give details.
- Is it ever OK for the government to enforce people to have injections? If so, when? If not, why not?
- The article that prompted this activity stated, "Scores of grumbling parents facing a threat of jail lined up at a courthouse Saturday to either prove that their school-age kids already had their required vaccinations or see that the youngsters submitted to the needle." Do you think it's right to put a parent in jail if they don't give their child a vaccination? Why or why not?
Quality natural supplements
I've been using Physician Formulas for years and highly recommend them. I wouldn't be an affiliate with them unless I had total confidence in their products and service. Living in Taiwan, I was very happy to find them because it's sometimes hard to find the supplements I want here. Physician Formulas ships internationally. Go to Physician Formulas.
