<description>My son was a victim of Shaken Baby Syndrome and I think it is horrible that people continue to say it doesn't exist simply because they are in denial that someone in their family could do that to a child.  I'll be the first to admit when my son was first shaken I absolutely refused to accept that it was possible.  He had only been in the care of my husband and myself... yet 3 weeks later, without prompting, he confessed to shaking him.  So it IS possible and it DOES happen, and it happens EVERY SINGLE DAY....</description>

<description>It is biomechanically impossible to shake a small child as stated by those supporting SBS, without leaving marks, bruises, severe spinal cord damage or other trauma. It was stated that SBS is equal to an infant falling 2 to 3 stories, or being in an automobile accident and being thrown out of the vehicle. “ALL WITHOUT ANY EXTERNAL INJURY OR BRUISING.  It’s impossible. Why are our families being falsely accused, and even convicted without proof?  We have been working since Dec 2006 to get copies of medical records, subpoena ordered since about May 2007 and still our attorney's do not have the complete records.  What are they hiding? DCF uses every comment from anyone &quot;Doctors, Hospital Clergy, Nurses, and Counselors, etc against the family and twist the comments to fit the alleged event. The doctors are more interested in “who” did it not what actually happened. If this program works as well as the Sex Education to prevent Teenage Pregnancies laws we are all in real trouble....</description>

<description>While SBS does happen and the associated physical damage such as, head and neck trauma and spinal cord detachment, bruised and fractured legs, arms, bruised and fractured ribs both front and back as well as death. Could someone explain why &quot;Adverse Vaccination Reactions&quot; are not being included in this bill? I have a Granddaughter who was given numerous vaccinations, at 2 months old, while under the care of a doctor, against the advice of the Center for Disease Control and Manufacturing Company, while recovering from pneumonia, on antibiotics and no-one is taking the doctor to jail.  Why not? He knowingly vaccinated a sick child.  Parents must sign and accept the consequences for any reaction from the vaccination.  Why are parents being held responsible?  S. 1204 is really just more spending and job security for those who want to take over child rearing from &quot;real&quot; parents.  Wake up before your children are taken to jail for being accused of hurting your grandchild...</description>
