I'm not sure how many different ways to say the same thing so that you understand it. Public shaming and staying away from people who never vaccinate their kids does not take away their right to make that choice. Government regulations do.

Maybe you should just try not repeating yourself and re-reading what I wrote since I am pretty much in total agreement with what you are saying and completely honor and agree with the choices you and your wife made.
I wasn't calling you or your wife hypocrites. I was saying that out of all the people in this thread that you two made your own decisions based on knowledge and not blind faith. When it comes to vaccines, which WHP is quite correct are dangerous by nature, that is the best way to go and different people will view the information and decide different levels of risk tolerance.
What if your wife thought you should wait till the kids were 10 to vaccinate? That is all I was saying. Then you would have had that "gun" to your head. I bet she faced a lot of pressure to vaccinate and not wait. I know my wife and I did and we aren't even in the health care profession where that pressure it 10 times worse.
I am not anti vaccine. I am anti ignorance. You are clearly not ignorant so I don't criticize your choices or opinions at all in this.
