My stepmom sells the beforementioned vaccine… I am very skeptical to vaccines, but of course I want to protect myself against genital warts and the cancer that might follow. Well, she wants me to take one and I can get it for free.. But I just don’t know…

What do you guys think? Do any of you moms NOT vaccine your babies and such? I’m just… I don’t know :/

    Thanks SOOO much you guys! Yea, I don’t think I’m gonna go for it.

    It’s just hard because of course she wants the best for me and her own daughter (we’re the same age). I’m not living with them any longer, and we have a strained past.

    When she asked me, I politely said that I had a doctors appointment on the 11th and that I would consult him first and then make my decision, just to buy some time. At that point she said she thought I should just jump on it. Actually, she had already signed me up for it.

    Immediately after our conversation I went on to post here. I really value this forums input and I thank all of you who took the time to answer!

    Thanks, -Marie

    What scares me most about these vaccines is the lack of long term or even adequate short term studies to follow side effects or negative consequences. We are a walking generation of long term studies. None of the vaccines that we typically received in our childhood were tested for more than 2 years. We are the clinical trials. Who knows what effects these will have in 10, 20, 40 years?
