I read a really powerful and valuable book for parents this week called He's Not Autistic, But... How We Pulled Our Son From the Mouth of the Abyss by Tenna Merchent, M.H. I was initially drawn to this book because 1. The author's son was on the autism spectrum like mine and 2. the author believes that vaccines caused or at the very least greatly exacerbated her son's condition just like I believe was the case with my son. The author shares her journey to heal her son in non-conventional and … [Read more...]
When Your Parenting Style Goes Against the Grain
I recently read an excellent article in a parenting magazine. I related deeply to an article on "Being a Parenting Original".

Action Alert: Vaccinate Your Kids or Else!

I think you all know my stance on vaccinations. My kids will NEVER be vaccinated and I will move to whatever state or country that respects my freedom in this regard. Vaccines contains toxic chemicals such as … [Read more...]
The Vaccine Issue – My Son’s Story
I posted last week about Jenny McCarthy's appearance on Oprah and her new book Louder than Words. If you missed it, Jenny shared how vaccines played a part in her son's autism and how she was determined to help him recover from this condition. This morning I was reminded of this topic again...twice. First, I watched Jenny again on The View. It was another good interview. She talked about vaccines and the possibility of recovery for the autistic yet again. I did find Barbara Walters a bit … [Read more...]
