Isn’t that kinda not part of the freedom thing tho? Wouldn’t it be more like if the kid dies from a preventable disease that they could vaxxed against they’d be charged with child abuse, but before that I’m not sure how that works with the law. Also these parents would find a way to fake vax their kids I know several parents who at least had fake fax papers so their kid can go to school

So you don’t believe in freedom of religion?

Not if your religion requires child abuse

Not vaccinating is not child abuse. I’m definitely going to be vaccinating my children but if some people choose not to that’s perfectly fine.

Yeah because it’ll be totally fine when a school of non vaxxed kids suffers a measles outbreak and a quarter of the kids die. And even if some of the kids are vaccinated they can still contract it during massive outbreaks. Vaccines are to keep those outbreaks from happening.

not vaccinating is 100% child abuse, it’s explicitly neglectful

Freedom of religion only applies when it isn’t endangering children. Just like the gov can break up pedophilic sex cults, they can charge for medical neglect of a minor.
