A recent news story described a newborn being taken away from her mother shortly after birth because of the mother's refusal to allow the child to be vaccinated with a Hepatitis B vaccine.
In my law practice, I hear stories from time to time about newborns being vaccinated in the hospital after birth without the parents' permission. Most of the time, these kind of problems are avoidable with a little legal information and some common sense preparation.
The mother whose child was taken away had planned a home birth, and made the mistake of not having a contingency plan, a "Plan B," in case she ended up in the hospital, as some planned home births inevitably do for one reason or another.
Once in the hospital, she politely refused the Hep B vaccine, but unfortunately, not in a manner consistent with her state's legal options. Sadly, we don't have the right to decide what goes into our and our children's bodies, at least not absolutely.
