Would you let your daughter have the cervical cancer vaccine?

I have heard a few bad things about it.

**Damsella** · 26-10-2007, 11:11am

Well of course I will, why wouldn't you want your child to avoid cancer?

**Narcissa Malfoy** · 26-10-2007, 11:12am

I would as long as I have looked into it and made sure I am happy with the implications. I have let them have all the other vaccinations available and would think that this would be no different.

Yes I would, certainly, and if I had a son I would want him to have it too (you can do this privately) so he doesn't endanger his partner. What bad things have you heard? It has only been available for a short time. The only bad things I have heard about it are in the sort of paper that thinks death is a satisfactory outcome from sex for women.

**Abbie** · 26-10-2007, 11:13am

Based on the current information about it, of course I would.

If there were some risks or bad effects from it to surface in years to come then I'd possibly re-think but as it stands, absolutely

I have heard a few bad things about it.

What have you heard?

**Jubjub** · 26-10-2007, 11:13am

Yep, I think it's a fantastic thing.

**Islander** · 26-10-2007, 11:13am

Absolutely. As someone who has had a pre-cancerous lesion on my cervix (thankfully caught in time), I'd do anything I could to help my daughters avoid this.
