We have a potential legal issue coming up with my husband's daughter. She is 16, and has been living with us since last November. She is now spending the summer with her mother. They have joint legal custody, but her mother still has physical custody.
Her mother wants to take DBM to get the HPV vaccine. DH is against it. After explaining what it actually is (NOT a vaccine against cancer at all, simply a vaccine for a couple of strains of an STD that sometimes might cause cancer), DBM doesn't want it, either. I work at a different doctor's office, and they said that if mom was at the appointment and wanted the kid to get it, they would give it to her.
Anyone know if there are any legal steps we can take in order to make sure DBM doesn't get this shot?
