Delaying some shots is ok, not everyone agrees with the suggested timing.  Denying your child the health and safety of the immunizations all-together?  Thats up there with refusing to allow your child to learn how to read.  Worse it endangers other children, especially those who are too young to be immunized and rely upon the older children being immune to avoid contact with the disease in the first place.

Essentially, skipping the immunizations completely puts lives at risk.
