And again, opposing groups talk of "parents rights". And I'll say it again...parents have no rights with respect to their children. They do not "own" them, They have only obligations. And those obligations include the obligation to ensure that their children (and the children they interact with) are not exposed to undue risk due to the lack of vaccination.

The anti-vaccine selfish b*strds have obviously never heard of 'Herd Immunity'.  Luckily enough my daughters are sensible, and haven't refused MMR vaccine for their kids.

They've heard of it, but they choose to explain it away, along with all the other science, as some huge conspiracy. This just makes them even more culpable. They should be held to account for the lives they are placing at risk.
