As the child of a polio survivor who suffered permanent spine and leg damage as a infant, (and now has PPS) thank you for sharing this. As someone who follows most of the standards of attachment parenting, but does vaccinate (selectively/delayed with my oldest, and on schedule with my youngest) I find myself constantly defending my choices to other parents at LLL or babywearing meetings. Maybe I'll just direct them to this episode in future after I view it in it's entirety.

I've found the Penn & Teller episode on circumcision to be especially effective in preventing it for friends expecting baby boys. Something about the way they present things really gets to viewers. I've never seen this episode before however...
