Yes...it is a must. There are WAY more risks involved with not vaccinating your children. You cannot just keep them at home forever so that they will not be exposed!

yes and no, they use the same dosage for an infant that they would use for a child up to 50 lbs. Also 1 in i think 180 children are at risk for autism. Except for Amish children because they don't vaccinate! so there is an obvious link between the 2.

Yes, please do this for your child and for others.
This article is a Jewish perspective on the controversial issues surrounding immunization. I am not Jewish but this provides some good logic and may address your mindset. Here is an excerpt:
"I run a very small risk of becoming infected (because there simply is no one around me likely to catch the disease and pass it on to me) and my lack of immunization does not threaten anyone else, as long as they are immunized. Statistically, this argument makes sense. We only need a certain percentage of the population to be immunized to control a given disease.
However, practically, the logic is problematic. If everyone took this approach, no one would be immunized and the threat of deadly disease would skyrocket. We are beginning to see this phenomenon with respect to some childhood diseases.1 This is why society requires universal immunization, tolerating non-compliance only when public health is not threatened. On a small scale, we see what can happen when a population is not immunized by looking to the high polio rate in the Amish community."

Yes. And most every school requires the child be up to date on his/her vaccines before they can enter school.

My son is getting all of his vaccinations because I was allergic to the whooping cough vaccine(the P in the DTP shot) and guess what I got in kindergarten? Yep, whooping cough. I almost died from it because my pediatrician refused to believe that it even existed!
My mom had to take me to Children's Hospital 60 miles away, because they didn't believe her anywhere else, and that's exactly what it was. My mom knew because she has kids who are all at least 19 years older than me and she went through it was 3 of them before the vaccine came to be popular and anyone could get it.
