i am beginning to actually see what others have said. its usually people without kids who want to tell others how to raise theirs LOL

sarah, do you have kids?

I cant imagine being forced to vaccinate a child and then having her die hours later... no matter how many people say its safe.
I have step kids from my first marriage that are now grown but weren't when I was married. Both are girls and both were sexually active before either myself or my husband would have liked. Therefore, prime candidates to be protected by anything aimed at cutting the risk of cervical cancer.

I am speaking as a woman on this one too. This is something that can help to prevent one of the most horrible forms of cancer a woman can get. When they started to implement it into schools, there were are many more people against it because 'girls shouldn't be encouraged to have sex' that there were those worried about the safety of the injections. I feel horrible for this girl and her family but the idea that it could be used by those people as a reason to pull it out of schools worries me.
