We will get some of the shoots and will not get most.

How it goes from a handful to tens of shots seems more like business than medicine.

In CA there is a form you have to present to school or they will not take them.

The same form is required in Florida as well. Get the required ones and also ask for the form each time (here it’s called the blue form) and have the pediatrician sign off on it. They are required to keep a copy as well. This will save you a trip and charge to get the form when you need it. If you can get two original copies signed. You’ll need the extra for 7th grade. You can get that TB booster for “free” (after paying thousands in State property and sales taxes) at the local health clinic. Just don’t touch anything while you are there ;D!

Happy parenting!

It’s much easier if you don’t send them to daycare or school, particularly daycare. Many of the vaccinations are for illnesses that are primarily transmitted in daycare centers. Others, such as the chicken-pox vaccine, are oriented toward reducing school absenteeism (and parents’ corresponding work absenteeism).

I get the children vaccinated mainly for the stuff that will kill you, like meningitis and polio, and I get them fewer at a time and at older ages than the schools require.
