An additional thought- I don't think that all vaccinations should be required.
I agree with this. When I was a kid, I never got the final MMR vaccine. When I went to ISU, even though I was living off campus, they required me to get it. I ended up with a swollen throat to the point that I couldn't talk, couldn't swallow, and had trouble breathing. My idiot doctor thought it was strep, even though my symptoms were word for word listed on the paper that he gave me listing the side effects. I didn't think anything of it at the time, but was it really necessary to get that vaccine? I'd probably be better off today if I hadn't gotten it.
On the other side of the coin, my husband recently got the chicken pox vaccine. He never got CP when he was a kid, and adult chicken pox can be so much worse than it is for a child. In this case, if it keeps him from getting really sick, I think it's worth it.
