Would you intentionally expose your child to chickenpox?

Came across this here:

I have no idea what age a child can get the vaccine since we don't inject toxins into Patricia, but the chiken pox virus can be gotten at any age. We are planning a chicken pox party when we find a child who has been exposed. I would much rather her have permanent immunity.

I can't help but think that can't be good. Exposing your child to chickenpox so they won't get it later?
