Wish I'd been to one as a kid... I caught it when I was 33 - was bedridden for three days.

It hits adults much harder than it affects children, who seem to shrug it off easily. Fortunately my own children have already had it, so won't suffer as I did in later life.

Heaven forbid that they should be given the vaccine.
Much better to expose them to a disease in an uncontrolled manner. After all, it's only a third of childhood strokes that are attributable to chickenpox. And who cares if they should pass it on to others?
