Flu Vaccine? All thoughts welcome

[~Mands~]

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone has vaccinated their child/ren against the flu. What was the reason/s? Has anyone vaccinated due to starting child care, or do you see this as uneccessary?

Thanks in advance.

I read a couple of articles about flu vax and kids last week...

I have received the flu shot every year for the past 6 years as my employer provides them free of charge. I have never had the flu in that time or any complications/ side effects with the shot. :D

I have had flu shots too :thumbsup: and am generally healthy.

Is there anyone else who has had their children vaxed against it, or has opinions for/against??
