I don't knowingly let my kids spend days with unvaccinated kids/other people. Our schools require it and getting an exemption is difficult. I know their friends and mine, and we are all vaxed for everything
So no, my kids simply don't spend a ton of time with unvaxed people.

Yes… we walk among the living! My 3 year old is unvaxxed. Her 4 older siblings have all their shots.


So you don't like that last one as much or what?


I think it was the Covid insanity and believe the science at all costs hysteria. Remember the shot coercion? I lived in Maine where they pressed that shit hard. No exemptions. Blah blah blah. So no, it’s more of a I won’t be rushed into sticking unknown garbage into my baby by a harried healthcare worker who leaves a printout and can’t tell me how this Science (tm) works.


I’m sorry you don’t care about kids dying.

Well then you are a crappy parent.

1 sibling has 2 toddlers (will be 5 and 2) unvaccinated, another family has 2 toddlers (3 and 1) but on a “spaced out” vax schedule.

For this trip we’ll have a 2 yo (fully vaxxed) and a 2 month old (obviously not yet eligible to be vaxxed). I was not pregnant when this trip was booked.

I’ve told my husband (he agrees) that I will not be going with our 2 month old, so he’ll be taking the 2 year old alone. Not putting the newborn at risk.

Beyond that now I’m wondering if our 2 year old should even be around her unvaccinated cousins - this is NC and measles cases are starting up, even though she will be up to date for her age. Also curious how others would approach letting the families know. We haven’t let anyone know our plan. Thanks all!


WTH no your 2 year old does not go. What is wrong with you?

You are being ridiculous OP. And if I were your IL's family I would be hating on you so hard.


Not OP and no I do not. This is why I choose providers who do not see unvaccinated children. This is why I send my child to a school that requires vaccinations. This is why I dont have playdates with people who are open about not vaccinating. I act on the information I do have. Being shunned is no fun, I know, but it is the consequence for your dumb actions.

Without even reading the other answers the answer is no, absolutely not, no. They don’t make good decisions for their children, what makes you think they will for yours? How will you feel, rather how will your children feel, if they come down sick with something so preventable? And the baby who can’t yet be vaxxed will bear the entire brunt of whatever illness with zero protection. Again, preventable diseases with real live working vaccinations available. No vax, no kid visits. Full stop.

“After speaking with Larla’s pediatrician, she feels very strongly that because of the rising cases of preventable diseases, we can’t allow unvaccinated contact. Until everyone is fully kids won’t be able to spend time together. This isn’t personal - it’s a medical and safety decision. We cooperation and understanding.”

Why would that be relevant to OP's question? This is about sharing a beachhouse for a week with unvaccinated family members when OP has a newborn. Her question isn't about being in public around people. That's very different.

It's truly baffling and I think it should be studied that people like you keep repeating this nonsense despite knowing better.
