Reply To: Schools and vaccinations — a modest proposal

My point is that the parents and their supporters in the rabbinate are positioning this as a case of schools denying children a chinuch. The argument is how can you deny a child a chinuch just because you disagree with the parent. So I propose that the school reframe the whole conversation by saying all children are welcome — but if you send them to us we will vaccinate them. Of course the anti-vaxx parents would refuse, but now they, not the schools, would be the ones denying their children a chinuch, so if these rabbonim have any integrity they would have no choice but to turn their position around and support the schools and condemn the parents.
