Because it’s South Carolina, where the conception of children as property of their parents is maybe more deeply embedded than anywhere else.

Poor kid. Survival of the fittest, I suppose... Sorry about your luck of the draw with your mom.
These things suck so bad. It’s frustrating when the children suffer because of the parents choices.
guessing shes also brain damaged from being anti-vax.
house did an episode on this, the child had measles that went semi-dormant and cause panechepalitis.

Good job killing your son you stupid piece of shit.
Not that vaccines can cause autism in the first place because that's not how autism works, but is this really so much better than autism? Are they so scared of having an autistic child that they'd rather risk their child dying? It alarms me how much people misunderstand such a common condition to the point they'd rather have a dead child than an autistic one.
Seriously, get CPS involved. This is malicious neglect.
So she wants her son to die, got it.
I would still report this terrible woman to CPS.
Stupid cow is going to remove herself from the gene pool
Unfortunately not, 3 other children, 2 of which already got measles a week or two prior to the one in the article. 🙄

Measles is incredibly infectious. Once it hits a household, everyone will be infected.
Mom is fine because she got MMR vaccine.

Reactionary ideology is a cancer, this right here is proof that if we want a future for ourselves and the next generations we must eliminate it.

Propaganda is a hell of a drug.
What do you expect? This top shelf dingus has been told by what is now the “top health official” in this ass backward country that fucking vaccines are harmful…
Darwin Award.
She already procreated.
There's no exception for killing your child before they procreate?

Just another example proving Hitchens right about religion.
Poor kid. Doesn't get to decide whether he wants to be born, doesn't get to pick his parents. Stuck with whatever idiots pop him into the world.
Remember, there is no unselfish reason to have a kid.
They should be arrested for child neglect.
Reminder that you can have your measles immunity tested as an adult, and get a booster if needed, the latter for free (for now, until MAHA fucks that up too).
