I'm so afraid for the children...

We’re in CA where 12-up will be required to get the vaccine to go to school next year. Next it will be 5-up. I have grandsons, 6, 9, and 14. I’m very worried.

Move or home school. Do not allow your grandchildren to be lab rats!!!

My son & his wife believe in the jabs and my granddaughter has already been jabbed. I have no doubt my grandson will be too as soon as they start rolling them out here in CA. As a grandparent I am powerless to stop it & I'm am beyond frightened & sick about it

It's so hard when the young people won't take the advice of those who have lived long enough to develop some wisdom. Then they feel superior and arrogant in their decisions, not just about vaccines, even disallowing grandparents to see their grandkids. Your family is among many who are running in to get shots that are risky when they aren't at great risk of serious illness from Covid. Subjecting children to this experiment? Horrible.

Tragic Story out of PA. This is typical of what appears to be happening , but is labeled as a Covid 19 death....Can the Media hypnotic trance be broken?

Joe Wise, a Republican candidate for an Allegheny County Council in Tuesday’s election, died Saturday afternoon of COVID-19 complications.

Mr. Wise had received his first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine and then fell ill, according to his son Christian Wise, 17.

“He was a phenomenal person,” Christian said. “He got sick literally the day after he got [the vaccine], and it really was just a string of bad luck.”

He was 56.

"...just a string of bad luck."

Somebody doesn't trust the science. If they did, they'd be aware of what can be found in table 2 of this study of 350K medical workers. That being: "Adjusted Vaccine Efficacy 0-14 days after first dose: -1.04"

I hope they reported it to VAERS.

Maybe you can pull the state data and other states to show them that healthy children should not get the vaccine. I collect from my own state, WV where I now live after retirement. This state has a very unhealthy population; obese children/young adults. Not one child under the age of 16 has died of COVID. Age Group 16-20, 2 have died. It is my unprofessional opinion, even chubby kids are healthier than say someone 25 overweight. The ages for death start showing up in 21-30 where 20 have died. The longer you carry extra weight the more damage it does to your over all health. Just my opinion there.

For a couple of months I was trying to reconcile the number of deaths reported to CDC for US (age group 0-24; had to use this age group, because that was the only way to match ages based on the two diff provided data). The problem with that I discovered after a while, the comorbidities are behind in inputting data even though the end date was only one day diff. The number of deaths for no-comorbidities went down some times (Total deaths for age group less deaths with other factors contributing to death). It took too much work and not enough good results to continue pursuing. For example, did this on the fly just now; they have 2101 deaths nationwide for 0-24, and 2059 with other causes contributing to death. 42 do not have comorbidities reported. The thing is, say next week the diff might be 38. Here are the links: https://data.cdc.gov/NCHS/Provisional-COVID-19-Deaths-by-Sex-and-Age/9bhg-hcku/data

Children should not be vaccinated. I agree that obesity among children is serious. So many explanations. There are few homemakers who cook at home for the family. They are working and stressed. Family members have different schedules and don't eat together. Sacks of fast food are brought in each night. The kids love that food, so Mom is happy. There's the salt and the caloric content and not a balanced diet.

I remember the US before we looked like a herd of swine. Also remember the explosion of frozen food in the markets in the 80s: frozen individual serving pancakes, frozen hamburgers in the bun etc. It shocked me because I'd been in rural SW NYS in college and no one could afford that trash. Then mothers were told we only needed 15 minutes of good "quality time" per child per day so we could go ahead, park our kids in daycare, work our asses off on some ego ridden career fantasy, and hey, all would be well. WE would be happy and that's ALL that mattered.

(I never thought that made sense.) And the 90s...that's when you started to see lard buckets everywhere. People too busy to cook, to sit down together get FAT.

Now on the local University campus I see girls walking sometimes work what's obviously their mothers. The mothers are often trim, the girls look like hippos. And you realize there's no way on God's green earth they're ever going to lose that fat.

Thanks for the information. Weight definitely plays a role but To explain young healthy athletes getting sick or dying, there is more to the story. Different pathways are involved like angiotensin in nose…lungs … T helper cells B- cells IGE IGM IGG Interleukins. Keep exercising and eat well and early intervention is important.

This was right in front of me on the first link, and now is more relevant since CDC wants to vaccinate children as young as 5.

More Children have died of Pneumonia than COVID (time period 01/01/2020 – 10/27/2021), since start of COVID.

Ages 0-17 COVID Deaths 558

Ages 0-17 Pneumonia Deaths 1,055

Ages 0-17 Deaths from all causes 60,066

No one is forcing parents to have their children get the pneumonia shot. Why?

In my experience, there is no presenting information. That's what my friends tell me. I know that people have been instructed to "pre-but" not rebut the information that conflicts with their politically correct views. A friend sent me his copy of Science News which recommends that people read or listen only to their suggested list of accurate media which support the "science." NYT, Washington Post, and such irresponsible publications are listed. The brainwashing of the younger generation is shocking. The government knows everything. Parents and grandparents are ignorant of the science.

We're in WA, too. Fortunately, we found a Classical Christian School near us a few years back and they allow kids to go unmasked.

We discussed, as a family, that if Inslee ever starts talking about the jab for private school kids, that's our 'go' criteria. I'd rather live in a trailer in a free state than under tyranny.

In South Dakota we have not had masks this year. If there is an exposure and no symptoms the kids go to school and wear a mask for 10 days. Life has returned to normal with no problems. In Minnesota a surgeon from Fergus Falls was fired for stating that surgical masks don't prevent the spread of viruses... He is correct.

Expand full comment

Several studies show that these masks are useless for viruses. They only work for bacteria, which are much larger. Well, the 95 mask says it all right - it keeps 95 % and lets 5 % in. One study, by the Dentists of Canada, was revoked at the beginning of the mask craze, but I read it before that. No difference between mask or no mask on a dentist. And he is very close to you.

We moved from Washington state six years ago, my boys still have friends there and two of the families are leaving the state because of the schools. Another boy who is a junior has been asking my sons about homeschooling. They are making life miserable for the kids that won't get vaccinated. It should be criminal! And his friends that were vaccinated all got sick with covid afterwards anyway!

“Everyone around you” seem to be just more useful idiots that allow this madness to continue. You did the right thing, my kids are grown but if they weee still grammar school aged they would be homeschooled.

You are not overreacting in my grandmotherly opinion. Children these days get far too many vaccines, some of which they don’t need.

The article was illuminating and important. But you probably noticed that the writer had weaknesses and psychological problems which caused her to blow like a reed in the wind, and to believe that she was bullied by "big men." So unless you need counseling, I suggest not crying. Go with your instincts about your child in all ways, and just say, "We're not doing that." Wo cares what the other parents are doing? They don't have your good instincts.

when you identify yourself with "what I do, what I have, what other ppl think about me", you are an object (objectify yourself and others), it's impossible not to project that onto others too, even your children. We are Relational Beings worthy of respect(and individuality) able to give and receive love. That is the seduction of satan...to get you to objectify yourself, then you are a perpetual victim and at the whims of others. God wants us to see the truth and restore our identity.

Read about Ancel Benjamin Keys and the terrible impact he had on Americans with his ill-formed "science" in the 1950s. From his "science" he defined a diet for Americans that ended up causing heart disease, obesity, diabetes, and all sorts of other problems. His bad science is responsible for the diet that was recommended by the American Heart Association & the U.S. Department of Health in the 1960s. He said saturated fats were a problem causing "clogged" arteries. Just one little problem, that isn't how our liver metabolizes saturated fat. But as a consequence of his diet, Americans turned to a diet high in carbohydrates and kaboom, we were off to the races with an epidemic of obesity that has not abated. We put so much faith in experts when often times they are just headline grabbers.

Spot on. The FDA recommended “diet” may be one of the greatest public health tragedies/errors of all time in terms of lives and quality of life lost. It’s worth asking: if we have yet to fully understand the biochemical and physiological effects of simple food, is it reasonable for experts to claim total understanding of incredibly complex mechanisms like the human immune system and the impact of gene therapy/vaccines?

Thanks. I hadn't thought of that. Those who gave up butter and eggs and milk and meat turned to carbs. Does anyone out there have experience with children who eat only a very few things and whose diets are terrible? I am shocked at the family members' children and how there seems to be no planning of nutrients or variety of a wholesome diet.

Of course, you're worried, as well you should be! Yes, encourage your grandsons' parents to homeschool the boys or find a private school that doesn't require the jab! All of my soon-to-be thirteen grandchildren, who are school-aged, are being taught at home. I've never been more grateful that my grandkids are being homeschooled than I am now in this upside-down, insane world!

HOWEVER, my oldest grandchild went off to a state college last year on a volleyball scholarship. She and her team mates were required to wear masks while playing, and no family member or friend could attend the games. 🙄

BUT . . . in order to return to school, during THIS academic school year, she was essentially forced to submit to the jab. Her parents tried to talk her out of doing so, but hey, she's 19 now. She wants to get a degree, and as one of five children, the only way she can do that (in her mind) is to attend college on a scholarship. Her parents researched all three vaccines and recommended the J&J. Despite reports of clots out of England, this is the one vax that is not mRNA formulated.

I worry about her health now and about the four boys behind her, who will want to attend college, but will be faced with the same dilemma. I can only pray that the madness will end before they graduate from high school.

All the best to you and yours, Debra!

I think that school officials don't want to lose pupils, because state aid is based upon enrollment. It's why they oppose vouchers. This requirement could hurt them, but they are confident that they have parents over a barrel. They believe that there are no choices for most parents but to comply, because parents will do anything not to pay for private education or have to home school.

Feeding children in the U.S.

Put the sacks of fast food (surprisingly expensive) on the table. Or, go out to restaurants and hand the five and three year old's their devices to watch mindless, rapidly moving action so the adults can sip their wine. Buy each child an expensive adult dinner which they will hardly glance at. Linger past children's bedtime, and all goes fine for quite awhile while the images swirl on the devices.

I’m in So Cal; let me tell you the (kinda long) story of when I took my son (now 24) out of school in 2011, when he was just starting the 7th grade. It was just before Common Core, and though I couldn’t name what was happening, I could SEE it coming, ever since Matt was in about the 2nd grade. Antibullying hit the scene first, though, bringing along with it gay and trans-rights messaging. I saw how it seemed to make everything worse: three kids at his school overdosed in the bathroom, and another kid (from our church) was caught selling his Adderall at school. Matt came down with mono around this time, and the school threatened ME with truancy officers and court orders because he was “missing too much school.” That did the trick. I unenrolled him the very next day, and I set up my own school “Alternative School #4” as a joke about Commie schools.

My only regret is not doing it sooner, but, like most of us, I’ve been subjected to heavy brainwashing, too. I was afraid for so long that I “couldn’t do it.” Finally, I was more afraid of what school was doing to him than what my (inabilities, knowledge gaps, or, God forbid, potentially neglect, etc.) might do. I decided that even if he learned NOTHING at home, he’d be better off than internalizing the “education” his school was providing.

Admittedly, Matt spent a couple of years mostly sleeping, eating, and playing video games with online friends, and I worried and worried, but he continued with his stage acting classes once a week, and I was always available to help him follow some passion or other: he took up growing exotic strawberries, he began collecting Illuminati cards (it’s a card game, and it’s so cool!), and we found a “day-class”/field trip to the Gemology Institute of America (GIA) that really sparked an interest in gemstones.

When he turned 15, he started to come out of his hibernation. He took a driving class at 15-1/2 to be ready for his provisional license at 16, then immediately started working on getting a job. I’d “graduated” him then, so he wasn’t stuck with all the trouble of dealing with work restrictions. Much to my surprise, after several (lame) interviews he didn’t get, with stores like Target, Toys-R-Us, Bed Bath & Beyond, and Old Navy, he said he wanted to work at a jewelry store. “Good luck,” I told my naive young son, who looked closer to 13 than to 16 (he looks about 16 now, at 24!). I didn’t think he stood a chance…and yet, he did it! He offered to work for free for as long was necessary to prove himself. He began collecting a paycheck within about three weeks. He took college classes and became a fully certified gemologist by 18, and now he’s running the store by himself. He’s constantly underestimated by customers everyday, and it’s been a blast hearing the stories of how he rises to each challenge.

He even found opportunities during the Covid (which we all had and we’re fine…no vaccines or masks or distancing for us, thanks) lockdown: Matt met a nice man, and they’ve been dating for over a year…huzzah! Best of all, Matt has developed into a FREE thinker! No vax for him!

I agree with this, Jordan. I have some friends who eagerly got vaccinated and then had serious female/period issues that took months to resolve.

I'm grateful ppl are finally starting to see.

Expand full comment

I hope you're right, but what I'm seeing most of is vaxxed people -- even those who've had bad side effects -- desperately clinging to their faith in the vaxxes and at the same time their paranoia about the covid and about the unvaxxed, probably to avoid facing the reality that they've been hoodwinked and maybe injured for life. One woman I know actually cheered when an unvaxxed co-worker caught a fairly bad case of covid. She's still treating him like a pariah now that he's recovered and is back to work, even though he's probably safer to be around than she is.

I'm afraid we'll see as much of this defensive reaction as the increased resistance that you describe. It's much like the women who've had abortions and then buried their grief in militant pro-abort activism to avoid facing what they've done.

Phoebe, I totally understand and there are the people who are dug in like it's their religion. I know many. And the truth IS rather unbelievable, so I give them that. But I am becoming increasingly aware through social media sites how many people are standing up for their rights and it seems throughout the world people are taking to the streets in greater numbers. So I have hope whereas a few months ago I was bereft. Tap into others, and information sources, like Alex, and stay the course! You are not alone. Every day things become more obvious to many, it's hard for people to acknowledge they have misunderstood or have a change in their belief system. You don't know until you know! Best wishes.

Expand full comment

What's really bizarre -- or maybe I should say sad -- is that the woman I mentioned had actually had a severe reaction to the shot, as had her husband and two other co-workers. In fact, her husband's reaction to the shot, with a fever peaking at 103F, was about as bad as the illness that the unvaxxed co-worker had with covid. But to her, only the unvaxxed co-worker counted as being sick, and it was all because he refused to take the shot. This kind of cognitive dissonance doesn't go away very easily.

they want more deaths, more mysterious illnesses ergo...MORE POWER AND CONTROL over the panicked easily manipulated sheep....egged on by psychotic Narcissists. Gaslighting often causes the victim to doubt themselves. Someone will do or say something abusive and then deny that it ever happened. This whole covid event has been mental abuse. You'll see me liken it to sexual assault. Epstein, Weinstein, Gates, Obama, Soros type mentalities behind every level of this.

A joke that many corporate employers and local school boards, especially in California, are apparently taking very seriously.

I think it's important that the older generation start standing up and saying "don't do it for us". So much of the message around lockdowns, and now vaccines, has been about "protecting the elderly and vulnerable". It has been used as an insidious form of guilt-mongering and shaming. If there were no risk to the young to vaccinate "for the sake of others" there may be some credibility to this approach - but there clearly is risk. And we should never, ever sanction ANY risk for the young for an almost zero benefit (for them). It is sheer madness to sacrifice the young for the sake of the old. I could never, ever ask that of my grandchildren. I would rather risk getting the disease and dying. You have clearly recognised this, so can do something about it by speaking to others and starting to send out a clear message - NOT IN OUR NAME.

Subjecting kids to toxic shots to "protect the old and sick" is called "eating your young. Anyway, if the shots protect you, why not let people take them if they want and leave others in peace?

CDC never answers that question. We feel like we're looking at insanity coming in from 360 degrees, but it's not insanity. It's money and cover-your-ass.

I've said it many times. I'm 74, and my ancestors WILLINGLY sacrifices their lives for the mere promise of individual liberty, then insisted on the Bill of Rights before ratifying the new Constitution. Their grandchildren sacrificed their lives to abolish slavery (unfortunately with exceptions) and make sure the Constitution applied equally to all Americans. My parents and grandparents fought for 100 more years to translate that de jure principle into de facto, admittedly a work in progress but still PROGRESSING. I will not sacrifice the inalienable rights of my children and grandchildren out of a FEAR (not even a reality) that my own long life will be shortened by 10-20%.

That's not true, acutally. They can get a Personal Belief Exemption for any vaccine that is NEW to the schedule. Also, it's still under EUA for kids that age, and it can't be added at this time.

It’s the friend thing... totally overrated in my opinion but he’s a teen, sophomore in high school . All his friends are jabbed so he doesn’t see the big deal with getting a shot .

Expand full comment

Sallie is exactly right; it WILL be challenging at first but he will thank you later. There are countless homeschool opportunities for extra curricular and social activities and when he sees how efficient homeschooling is and how much free time he has, he'll be surprised. My nephew had a hard transition last year from a big high school to homeschooling for his senior year. His alternative was to continue online class and he was miserable but he wanted to be with his friends. He ended up doing Liberty U's homeschool program and started college there this fall. He's a sophomore because he worked hard and took dual enrollment courses so got a year of college done.

It was some time ago, but my kids were homeschooled from early years. One of mine is a PhD scientist at a top lab, having earned a patent already in grad school. The other is artistic and homeschooling enabled them to take professional opportunities from the age of 16. They had a ball. The transition is hard and the first year is VERY hard, but you will get it and your son will soar, I know.

Definitely makes for a difficult conversation- it’s hard to toe the line between discussing the risks and causing them to worry about the people they love that have already taken it.

Did you use a charter school so that you could get funding? I’m just scared the mandates may effect charters and I do not have the ability to teach him at that level

Expand full comment

I didn't think I did either. Totally! I just bought the materials (some from the Ron Paul curriculum and some hand-picked), and I framed it to him that, instead of me being the teacher, we were going to try learning it all together. And we did. He has a college degree now and runs his own business.

Sallie is right on this, too. Some of the high school coursework is difficult to revisit, but there are wonderful curricula and plenty of help. Mine did Saxon math, which made my son cry at times out of frustration, but he learned to learn it on his own. There were tutoring videos that helped. However, when he got to college, because he had learned how to learn on his own, he soared. The hard work paid tremendous dividends.

From Nature Magazine.....Another Reason not to get Vaccinated !

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41421-021-00329-3

Large-scale COVID-19 vaccinations are currently underway in many countries in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Here, we report, besides generation of neutralizing antibodies, consistent alterations in hemoglobin A1c, serum sodium and potassium levels, coagulation profiles, and renal functions in healthy volunteers after vaccination with an inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Similar changes had also been reported in COVID-19 patients, suggesting that vaccination mimicked an infection. ( Well, Duh !! )

This is exactly what's going on with my brother right now. SUPER fit athlete. Last week he was climbing a 12,000 foot summit. Had his first shot in May, got Covid in July and his second shot in September. My parents called me yesterday and said he was in the ER with heart issues. Now, he's had two doctors examine him and the test results. One say he's had a heart attack. The other says he's got acid reflux. Healthcare at it's finest.

As I've mentioned elsewhere in this thread, some people may just be afraid to face what they've let themselves in for by taking the jab. If they acknowledge that other people have died or become disabled from the jab, then maybe they too will....but no, it's too frightening to think about. Deny, deny, deny. In a way, I feel sorry for these types -- until I hear them jeering at someone who got sick without the jab, even if they themselves got sick FROM the jab.

I'd say we'd have to better refine "BLM supporters", to distinguish those who might actively gather and peacefully protest actual transgressions and injustices vs those who virtue signal with lawn signs to show their constant stream of domestic workers and delivery drivers just how woke they are. Locally, at least, the most Arden supporters of vaxx passports and mandated jabs are quite happy to stay in and have masked underlings serve them.
