I feel this needs to be stated: the 3 year old definitely already had cavities.
The classic “detecting problems is what causes them” fallacy.
"We need to stop the testing so we don't have so many COVID cases."
How the fuck does a 3 year old get any cavities, much less 10?
Oooh boy, let me introduce you to the joy that is pediatric dentistry. I perform anesthesia at some peds dental places. Not unheard of to put full crowns or multiple extractions on kids under 3. I'm talking like at least one a day is that bad.
I've been sat on a bus after work one time (maybe 10 years ago now) and I saw a mother open a 2L bottle of coke and fill up a bottle with a teet and pass it to a kid who was no older than 3.
What in the actual fuck? This is why education is important. Well, this is one example of why.
Diet and oral care are very important, even for babies and toddlers!
That is simply not true, about breast feeding and cavities. Studies show that there are other factors at play, mainly linked to socioeconomic status, sugary/starchy diet and whether their water has fluoride in it or not.

Village idiots would traditionally be cared for within the village. Today, they form social groups of their own.
Good we no longer have to take care of them
Yes, but they enable each other, making their delusions worse
Watched a video about SovCits once. It was wild hearing a British man complain about his constitutional rights being infringed.
During Covid there were many Canadians arguing the first amendment was being violated by the government. The Canadian first amendment establishes Manitoba as a province of Canada.
I’m from the US and obviously education is different all over the world, but I always think back to the crazy high number of people that graduated high school with me that I knew who legitimately didn’t want to learn anything because they “would never use it in the real world”. And before I got off identified social media whenever I would see them post it was always something like this with a non existent grasp of how the world works.
I don’t even know if I have a point other than how do we even begin to fix a problem this invasive and embedded. I’m almost 40 and these folks are not going to accept any sort of reality anytime soon, but we need them to understand reality so we can address its threats we face as a species.
This is into the realm of semantics now but it isn't even called the first amendment.
From Wikipedia: An Act to amend and continue the Act 32–33 Victoria chapter 3; and to establish and provide for the Government of the Province of Manitoba, 1870.
It really highlights how the information is prepared for idiots who don't understand what they are saying. They have no idea how to control their life so they look for the clearly labeled things like "legal" and "lawsuit". It's as if they think legalese is a form of magic that forces things to go their way.
No jurisdiction on stupidity.
I love how this idiot can't quite comprehend the thought that the cavities were there when they took the kid away because they never got them dental care.
Its the same dumb fuck energy behind testing makes the covid cases go up.
And I'm willing to bet she signed the petition to remove fluoride from the local tap water too.
The interesting thing about fluoride and dental health stats, is that in most urban areas fluoride added to water accounts for something like less than 10% of cavity prevention.
But in poor towns and more rural areas, it can account for about 40% of cavity prevention.
Basically, higher income results in better dental care outcomes. Who knew, right?
Mandrake:
Yes, Jack?
Ripper:
Have you ever seen a commie drink a glass of water?
Mandrake:
Well, no I... I can't say I have, Jack.
Ripper:
Vodka. That's what they drink, isn't it? Never water?
Mandrake:
Well I... I believe that's what they drink, Jack. Yes.
Ripper:
On no account will a commie ever drink water, and not without good reason.
Mandrake:
Oh, ah, yes. I don't quite.. see what you're getting at, Jack.
Ripper:
Water. That's what I'm getting at. Water. Mandrake, water is the source of all life. Seven tenths of this earth's surface is water. Why, you realize that.. seventy percent of you is water.
Mandrake:
Uhhh God...
Ripper:
And as human beings, you and I need fresh, pure water to replenish our precious bodily fluids.
Mandrake:
Yes. chuckles nervously
Ripper:
You beginning to understand?
Mandrake:
Yes. chuckles. begins laughing/crying quietly
Ripper:
Mandrake. Mandrake, have you never wondered why I drink only distilled water, or rain water, and only pure grain alcohol?
Mandrake:
Well it did occur to me, Jack, yes.
Ripper:
Have you ever heard of a thing called fluoridation? Fluoridation of water?
Mandrake:
Ah, yes, I have heard of that, Jack. Yes.
Ripper:
Well do you now what it is?
Mandrake:
No. No, I don't know what it is. No.
Ripper:
Do you realize that fluoridation is the most monstrously conceived and dangerous communist plot we have ever had to face?
(...)
Ripper:
Mandrake, do you realize that in addition to fluoridated water, why, there are studies underway to fluoridate salt, flour, fruit juices, soup, sugar, milk, ice cream? Ice cream, Mandrake. Children's ice cream?
Mandrake:
Good Lord.
Ripper:
You know when fluoridation first began?
Mandrake:
No. No, I don't, Jack. No.
Ripper:
Nineteen hundred and forty six. Nineteen fortysix, Mandrake. How does that coincide with your postwar commie conspiracy, huh? It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual, and certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard core commie works.
Mandrake:
Jack... Jack, listen, tell me, ah... when did you first become, well, develop this theory.
Ripper:
Well, I ah, I I first became aware of it, Mandrake, during the physical act of love.
Mandrake:
sighs fearfully
Ripper:
Yes a profound sense of fatigue, a feeling of emptiness followed. Luckily I was able to interpret these feelings correctly: loss of essence.
Mandrake:
Yes...
Ripper:
I can assure you it has not recurred, Mandrake. Women... women sense my power, and they seek the life essence. I do not avoid women, Mandrake, but I do deny them my essence.
— From Stanley Kubrick's Dr. Strangelove: or, How I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb.
Such a good movie
I am utterly convinced that this scene alone is the singular source of the anti-fluoridation movement, even if many of the adherents haven't seen it. With as many dipshits that take fiction as reality, you know this is how it started, and momentum has carried it through!
It's the same as the belief that Kubrick faked the moon landing.

I'm not sure what this has to do with sovereign citizen. This is more anti-science, anti-intellect than anything. Especially since they are asking about foster care laws.
I mean I got this off a sovcit Facebook group.
Well, if it’s Facebook verified, it must be true.
They're the same picture.
I would assume they are a “sovereign citizen” nut and had their kid taken away
It's been 3 years, has there been any followup?
Yes she abducted the kids when she was told they'd be apprehended, but then they were rescued and have been in safe homes since.
Those poor kids. Most of us are fucked up enough without having such a totally fucked childhood....
