FDA Approved HPV immunization

Cervical cancer vaccine approved / Sexually transmitted disease treatment raises ethics debate
"It's naive to think that girls are not going to get into a situation where they might have sex before whatever age you want them to be," Tori said. "You may want to preach a particular family value, but whether or not that actually occurs is beyond your power. If you can protect your child from getting a life-threatening illness, absolutely, sign them up right now."
This is the most rational response to this I have seen. I can't believe there is anyone who wouldn't want there kids to have this. Then again, I can't believe that this day in age people argue that teaching kids that condoms prevent the sped of disease is considered controversial...
