Also, your logic assumes all un vaccinated children would contract it which is not necessarily true. It is a hypothetical assumption to the point you are making.

Yes, vaccinated children will stand a higher chance of resistance so please don't think I am trying to debate that. I am just saying exposure is still imminent regardless of whether a kid is vaccinated or not and the traditional method of quarantining a kid that comes down with mumps or measles has worked fine for many many years. Also, modern medicine has seriously reduced mortality from those illnesses regardless.
