Insanitize would be a better term! There are IMO three important factors leading to a dysfunctional immune system!

1) Immunizations, tricking the immune system to react to antigens that are not present.

2) Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications, one take away the natural job of a proper immune system, the other tells it not to do its job

3) Not playing around in dirty environments.

Certainly antibiotics could be a lifesaver, but you should not use it for a common cold, fever, or a middle ear infection.

I am thinking that maybe I should put proper nutrition on the list too. But I think the first three are the primary mistakes concerned parents make for their young ones. Those who are not concerned I don't concern myself with either...
