Do you know how wrong you have to be for APA to make a statement telling you you're wrong? They're obnoxiously neutral on EVERYTHING.

I commend every parent who is choosing to do the right thing by vaccinating their child as the measles outbreak spreads. There's no shame in changing your mind on a stance you were wrong about. Especially when it concerns protecting children from disease. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

I've never understood parents who try to mold and shape their children in their exact image. Did you enjoy your parents trying to turn you into exactly what they wanted you to be? No? Then fuck off and accept your kids for who they are. For Christ's sake, I can't believe I have to even say this.

The #1 reported reason people avoid doctor’s appointments is because they’re afraid of finding out they have a serious illness. If you have that fear, that’s normal and you’re not alone. Also remember, there is basically no serious illness that isn’t less serious if you catch it sooner.
