    Indeed. Adults have bodily autonomy over their own bodies, but they are their children's temporary caretakers. Children are parents' temporary wards, not their property or an extension of themselves. Adults have the right to medically neglect themselves, but not their children.https://twitter.com/doritmi/status/1199705031907233792 …

    I always find it troubling that antivaccine activists claim bodily autonomy in their children’s body as a reason against #vaccines mandates. No, parents, you do not have bodily autonomy in your children. They’re people, not limbs. Really, have you thought that one through?

        A beautiful demknstration of the denialist technique of cherry-picking. It is true, decreased mortality prior to introduction of salk/sabin was due to the iron lung and better medical care of those sickened by vaccine preventable illnesses.

        Sorry pharmaceutical companies and govts throughout the ages have never once had the health or wellbeing of any child at heart and I certainly don't expect that to start anytime soon. In fact history is littered with a litany of absolute horror stories. History ain't on your side

        Parents are legally accountable to make decisions for the bodily well-being of their children in every other way, but you think that should exclude vaccination decisions, and only if the decision is to forgo them?

        And when they are injured by a vaccine are parents still just temporary caretakers? Can they expect you to help out around the house? Will a State legislator come around and babysit? Of course you'll pony up some money for the care of that child, correct?

        Except for in the case of abortion. Screw the child's bodily autonomy. 🙄

        I want to thank the two of you, @gorskon and @doritmi, for the very compelling argument you’re making against abortion. 👍

        Not vaccinating is not neglect. Vaccination is medically sanctioned child abuse.
