    So you’re ok with children suffering the consequences of parent stupidity, because they’d be able to sue if they survived?

    What about the consequences to others if they are part of losing herd immunity or otherwise transmitted a contagious disease? Not everyone can be successfully vaccinated and their lives are contingent on the rest of us having enough immunity to block epidemics. You’re ok with them suffering …. And they don’t even have ability to establish consequences?

    Personally I don’t see a better compromise than what we have right now, where a kid must be immunized to go to school. Exile is the only way to protect the indirect victims of that stupidity. It also protects the direct victim somewhat, since they are less exposed to other people. Lastly, let the kid sue their parents for lack of education when they grow up, because at least they will grow up
