THE POTENTIALLY LIFE-ALTERING RESULTS OF FORCED VACCINATION

While this chapter has focused on parents’ rights, children’s rights are inextricably linked to their parents’ rights. Forced vaccination of children, in violation of parents’ rights, risks real physical harm to children. The results of forced vaccination while in foster care may be devastating.

Dan Olmsted, editor, Age of Autism, an online newspaper, wrote a story in 2008 about a young girl vaccinated while in foster care against her parents’ religious convictions. 51 CPS removed an Amish child from her family when she was one year old because CPS thought the family displayed “medical neglect” and failed to treat her chronic ear infection properly. In foster care, she was vaccinated, apparently with multiple vaccines in two sessions, presumably to “catch her up” to the mandated schedule. The child now has autism and is in her parents’ care. In the Old Order Amish community, parents do not vaccinate their children and autism is almost unknown.

CPS may protect children from child abuse and neglect, but it also poses a potential risk to families when parents choose not to follow vaccination mandates. Even in those jurisdictions where, by law, CPS and foster parents must respect parent choices about vaccination, they do not always do so. When parents are faced with the reality of childremoval proceedings, they must carefully document and communicate vaccination exemptions to CPS and know their rights.

The author wishes to acknowledge Malika Felix, graduating law student and CPR intern, for her research assistance. This chapter is an introductory overview and is not legal advice. State law, especially on religious treatment exemptions, varies widely. Parents should consult a lawyer to discuss individual circumstances; the cases used here are examples only.
