I want her to be afraid to have pre-marital sex. These vaccines just increase promiscuity. If people actually waited until marriage we wouldn't need these vaccines.

Yea but when shes a teen she wont be "afraid" she will have the mind set like most teens and say "it wont happen to me" when in all reality it can happen to her and if it does happen to her, you might blame yourself, and you dont want that do you....? I had stage 1 cervical cancer at the age of 18 and i had 2 partners. Its dangerous. My ob caught it soon enough. But they still had to go through the biopsy which was VERY painful. Then i had to wait in limbo not knowing what i had or anything about cervical cancer. And thats tough at 18. When i finally went into see my Dr. he told me i needed a LEEP done. i had that done which again was very painful, my parents were very scared, i was scared and it hurt for weeks after. Thank God he caught it when he did or it just would have spread and gotten worse. I also had to have pap smears every 2 months for a year. I would do all you can to protect your daughter.......She deserves all the protection you can give her. Not to mention cervical cancer and the cures affect many things including your chance of having children. After my leep was done i was told that it cut my chances of having kids down, because of the scars but do as you wish she is your daughter

Yes, it is wrong. Those vaccines do not increase promiscuity. That is just stupid. If you got a flu vaccine, would you then just let some stranger in an elevator cough and sneeze all over you?
The virus could very well exist even without any pre-marital sex. The transmission rate would just be far less.
If you don't want your daughter to know what the vaccine is for, don't tell her. Personally, I think a person has the right to know what someone is injecting into their body.

teens ultimately are going to do what they want, that's where your parenting comes into play. assuming the vaccine or birth control will promote promiscuity is a lil too dark ages in my opinion. assuming that teaching them abstinance only and withholding information is what leads to the high teen pregnancy/disease rate today. the best you can do is teach her the facts about sex, tell her what you hope for her and let her make her own choice. like the last person said, you can't be around her 24/7. and the harder you push her, the more she'll be likely to rebel. just try to have an open-ended conversation with her. listen to what she says, and don't judge her.

Refusing the vaccine is one thing but refusing it for the reasons you described is just plain stupid.
Teaching your kids to be responsible and to love themselves is the best way to deter promiscuity. Not a chastity belt. If your daughter knew how valuable she was and was instilled with self esteem and self worth, you wouldn't have to worry if she was going to be promiscuous; she just wouldn't be.
There's nothing wrong with having sex, it's just not life affirming if it's for the wrong reasons. Sex is a beautiful, natural and precious thing. It's the most intimate thing you can do with another person. Because of the closeness and you're physically swapping fluids with another person, it makes it something we all should think about seriously before doing it.
It's all about how you feel about yourself. If you don't think highly of yourself and don't have much value, you'll give it up easier. If you you value yourself, it will change the way you think before getting naked.

Have her get the vaccine and don't tell her what it's for. I don't explain vaccines to my kids, I tell them to sit still it will only hurt for a min. All she needs to know if you want to tell her something is it prevents cancer. If you don't want to have a talk about sex with her yet she doesn't need to know that you can get it from sex.
Personally I see no reason to NOT give it. There is a possibility otherwise that she would have sex and not know about it and get cancer. I wouldn't want to feel guilty that I allowed my daughter to get cancer when I could have prevented it.

You are so stupid.
Teenagers have so many hormones controlling them, they will have sex whether you like it or not.
Teenagers do not think about consequences and they usually live day-by-day. So if you can predict the future, don't give her the vaccine... otherwise, don't give it to her... and one day when she gets the disease, she will blame it all on you.
And you can all thumbs down me, i don't care b/c im not going to give someone a sucka$$ answer to make them feel better.. i am brutally honest.
What if she gets raped? Then gets the disease...? Huh?
Its the same when schools didn't want to give out condoms b/c they thought it would encourage sex.... you idiots... they are already fuc**** the he** out of each other anyways... and now they are all passing Stds.

I agree with you no vaccine. If we allow them to get the vaccine then it's just like saying it's ok to have sex now. We need to explain the reasons why they shouldn't be having sex before marriage and plain and simple is because it is a Sin. Don't do it! PERIOD!!

HPV causes cervical cancer - no if's-and's-or but's. So let's leave it with this - if you can keep YOUR child from contracting a disease that WILL kill her - you do it. How about this - your daughter gets pregnant by her husband (who has given her HPV because he engaged in unprotected sex before meeting your daughter) and your daughter give birth naturally, not C-section... now your beautiful grand-daughter, with so much potnetial ahead of her, has HPV. How does that sit with your conscience? Not only have you condemed your own daughter to the posibility of death by Cervical Cancer, but you have - due to inaction - allowed your grand-daughter to contract this deadly virus... and her children... and her children.
I have 2 daughters. My 12 year old just had her first shot - I love her too much to chance watching her die that way.
A LOVING father.

Sex is not the only way you can get HPV. Why deny your flesh and blood something that may save her life? There is no guarentee she will stay a virgin until marriage or that her husband will be. How will you feel then?

wow i didn't know they made a HPV vaccine, but anyhow if she is not having relations or has the virus then i wouldn't give it to my child either.. they have ways to detect cervical cancer so when that time comes for her to be checked for HPV then i would be concerned about such vaccines
