I never understood the fuss about gardasil since it did allow parents to opt out. How hard is it to say no? I was in the military and got shots that I wanted no part of and could not opt out of, so perhaps I see that whole thing differently than most.

Here are two links that will answer your thoughtful question...

"Opting-Out” of HPV Vaccine WILL NOT WORK for Many in Texas"

Rick Perry — conservative?

A man who thinks it’s acceptable to make a unilateral decision, usurping the rightful power of the legislature, is NOT a man to be trusted.

The state has no right to mandate vaccines for diseases which can’t be passed by simply sitting next to someone in class.

Why not just make it available to whoever wants it. Why should anyone have to opted out? Why do those who don't want it, have to do something? Let those who want it, just go get it. Got it? Anything else is big gov't.
