It was never about acetaminophen

It was about Parents (Man & Woman) being responsible and using intellect.
Once upon a time parents use to plan to have children, they stopped any bad habits. Working together they'd eat healthier foods and only participate in activities safe for pregnancy. Making responsible decisions for their families future.
Now by the time mom knows she's pregnant she's been drinking, smoking and partying for two weeks+, then becomes emotionally stressed out over a decision to keep it. Too many children are created from irresponsible drunken intercourse.

pro-lifers not so virtuous
just one drink won't hurt, just one smoke won't hurt, just one this, just one that...
Just one pharmaceutical (acetaminophen) won't hurt...
You put junk in, you'll get junk out, no matter how you try to spin it.

Trying your best isn't good enough
If your excuse was 'I tried my best', that's not good enough. You're creating another human life, this person could go on to change the world. Or sit in your basement drooling and playing video games all day.
It's a 24/7 job being a parent, you don't get to take time off. From conception to adulthood, you have to nurture and care for this human to give them the best chances for success. You don't get to pick and choose when it's convenient for you.

Trusting strangers with your body and choices.
You go to the doctor or hospital and accept what they tell you as fact or truth. Take the time to research the chemicals,vitamins,minerals etc they want you to put in your body.
Let's say for sake of debate acetaminophen to reduce fever really does directly link to increased chances of autism in your yet to be born child. Not so long ago, these same "professional" were telling you to take it, and you did!

The lottery of life.
Even if you do everything within your power to be healthy, make intelligent decisions and care for the child, you're still at the mercy of genetic lottery.

Filling the child's mind with propaganda.
Dumping your child off at the curb of a government run facility, 'school', where their head will be filled rhetoric in which you've not personally reviewed is irresponsible. The guise of education, particularly public education, has an agenda that is not set by you or your family. 'shaping young minds' is one of their slogans.
Children are born innocent, someone has to teach them information. Shield their minds from evil. This also involves you abstaining from activities that can teach them the wrong things. From inappropriate content to radicalized religion, someone has to introduce these things to their mind, sometimes that person is you or the people you allow them to be around.

The environment.
Broken people create broken people, if the child grows up watching their parents fight and yell. They're more likely to grow up fighting and yelling to solve household problems.
Crime infested areas create a bubble which can trap your family into a revolving system, get your family out of these areas, preferably before you plan a pregnancy.

What's wrong with society? Parents are what's wrong with society.
Don't go crying to big daddy government when you choose irresponsibly and stupidity.

Humans have children, goats have kids.

It was premature of Trump to say to not take Tylenol when the cause hasn't been established. However, we know that there are many drugs that are not allowed to be given to pregnant women due to them being teratogenic, so the people up in arms about investigating just the idea of this are against it because the orange said it. Tylenol themselves have said in 2017 not to give it to pregnant person's. It's so tiresome with how politics has taken over medicine.

Nobody wants to discuss or debate their own lack of responsibility for the future?
I presented several debate worthy points.

It's like a drug commercial where everyone is smiling and it's listing all the horrible side effects.

How humans learn and develop has not changed since the dawn of mankind.

The FDA is corrupted and not to be trusted, ever.
But a lot of people don't know this and think if it's approved it's safe.
I wish that where true, it used to be, but isn't any more.

Good point bringing up the Food and Drug Administration.
The same FDA that said red 40 was safe to consume.

How many pregnant mothers consume food which contained red 40.
How many fathers allowed this. (equal accountability)

How many parents feed their children this junk and other junk without questioning what they're doing.

Research ( https://oehha.ca.gov/risk-assessment/press-release/report-links-synthetic-food-dyes-hyperactivity-and-other-neurobehavioral-effects-children ) has shown links between red 40 consumption and a rise in Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children. The FDA says "most children have no adverse effects when consuming foods containing color additives, but some evidence suggests that certain children may be sensitive to them."

Stop being a bitch and just take the headache. We as humans endured much worse for millennia.

Today, there's just too much expectancy of constantly being in a state of comfort. Headache? got a pill for that. Fat? you don't need to not gorge yourself we have a pill for that. Feeling sad? we got SSRIs. Don't like that you're fat and lonely, well you can reboot by transitioning and becoming part of a community and feel empowered.

In regards to the acetaminophen, as I understand, it's use is primarily meant for fever reduction.
At which point the risk is outweighed by it's life saving qualities.
High fever aka temperature can lead to more complications for both the mother and baby, possible death.

But I agree with your comfort point, too many people pop a Tylenol (acetaminophen) or Advil (ibuprofen) for any little ache or pain.

The missing link I want people to consider is the lost knowledge our great grandparents knew, they didn't have these easy to pop pills.
Why weren't your parents, taught by their parents these tried and true solutions.

At what point did the responsibility for the children's future break down and government became the new parent.

Nah bro
Just another epstein distraction
Fill the space with more shit because some old rich white people dont wanna be registered sex offenders

I can put the words of socialist communists directly in front of their eyes. They don't even begin to understand, their minds are shaped and molded, such the same as their children. Once the old world lessons are lost, they can enact the new teacher. Artificial Intelligence, which will further send generations down a path of slavery and servitude.
