You ever try teaching a one-year-old not to put it's fingers
in its mouth? You would have to handcuff the little brat.

I'm sure every 'viewer' who has ever been a Mother will know
*exactly* what I'm talking about

Do you always expect reason from neo-cons?

Never - but Seimi is always playing the idiot to divert the
discussion or just point blank ignores me when he gets caught out.
Which is practically every time as it happens.





Lying prick, that's you trick.

That's simply not true as the most cursory skim through this thread
clearly illustrates.
I don't need to add anything to that as the evidence is right there in
all the above posts.
I used to think that sometimes you were just playing the dumb troll to
wind me up but others have since verified that you are indeed exactly
as you present.




The truth is that OLM is an occurance of such low likelihood as to be not
something which should be of major worry to the population at large. Of
the population of the US >0.00025% suffer some reduction of vision from
OLM. Fewer than that suffer blindness. There are many risks which we as
parents accept as very unlikely which make blindness from OLM pale by
comparison.

Some parents maybe.
And as I pointed out it's not just the blindness that is a risk.

"...A dog intestinal roundworm stomodeum (nematode Toxocara canis). It is a
parasitic infection caused by oral contact with material contaminated by
eggs in dog feces. Ingested eggs hatch into larvae in the intestines, then
migrate through the tissues to organs such as the liver, lungs, brain and
eyes. The migrating larvae may cause anything from mild malaise to asthma,
seizures, pneumonia and blindness..."

"...The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) today announced
about 14 percent of the U.S. population is infected with Toxocara, or
internal roundworms, contracted from dogs and cats. The results of this
study demonstrate that Toxocara infection in the United States is more
widespread and common than previously understood. This infectious agent is
capable of causing zoonotic disease that can lead to blindness and serious
systemic illness..."

Underestimate it at your child's peril.
