The Berkeley Parents Network just shared some really interesting statistics about who is and isn't getting vaccinated for whooping cough around here.

And so I am forced to ask: what the hell is wrong with parents in Marin and those sending their charges to Montessori schools?

ETA: I'm a little curious as to what it is about the DTP shot in particular that people object to, but I'm also afraid to poke around to find out. Like I said elsewhere, it's already been a hard week.

I just had a talk with my father about how when the Red Cross offers free vacc clinics in his town these days, the newspaper's letter page fills up with rants about how they're trying to kill poor children.

Alas, I replied, we have far more efficient methods for that.

*sigh* Oh, special snowflake parents...you give crunchy parenthood a bad name.
