Weak argument

I agree Lynn. What a weak and backward argument for not vaccinating. It's like the old days when girls were told they were't virgins if they wore tampons. Does the vaccine inject promiscuous cooties? I'm a vaccinator, do it on schedule. I'm a conservative gal and an abstinence promoter, and I still don't think my daughter will lose her virginity just because of a vaccine. I have a little more faith in the values we teach in our home and my daughter's ability to make choices.

Tangent but vaccine related: My kids got the chicken pox vaccine even when our pediatrician was leary because it was so new. My husband has never had the pox and with the added headache of Crohn's disease we decided to do all we could to avoid the chicken pox coming into our home. Two of the three who were vaccinated still got chicken pox. Go figure.
