HPV leaves the bodily naturally after about a decade.. that's normal. But having gotten a strain myself, I still got the shots, and I would do the same with my children to prevent them from going through what I went through.

But if it's NOT court/state/whatever mandated, it's a parenting decision. I respect your decision and understand why you chose that.

And we're so off track of the OP it's kinda funny.

LOL, this was kinda my point without stating it better. It's a parenting decision. This is a legal board and he shouldn't be shamed for not wanting his dd to have had those shots. Legally (if I remember his thread correctly), this father had final say on medical and the mother should not have gotten his dd shots without the very least his input or permission.

As for the OP, I think she's outta luck. I am Catholic as well. My church would NEVER permit the child to be baptized "secretly". I am very lucky that my ex and I get along and I don't have to worry about these kinds of things.

Thanks for the support, but you might be thinking of another thread. I've never mentioned my Gardasil dispute before in any of my posts. Ironically, I'm only bringing it up now to argue against Silverplum's idea that "[not] performing an action is better than performing it, if the parents cannot agree."

As for the OP, I think she's outta luck. I am Catholic as well. My church would NEVER permit the child to be baptized "secretly".
Catholic canon law Code of Canon Law canon 868 §1 1º provides that a child under the age of reason may be baptized even if only one parent gives permission. For children above the age of reason, only the child's consent is required for baptism per canons 865 §1 and 852 §1.

I am very lucky that my ex and I get along and I don't have to worry about these kinds of things.
Very cool. I wish my ex-wife and I could agree about anything.

Ah, I suppose I should've looked it up. However, I do support what Silver is saying. If the parent's cannot agree (except in an emergency) it is better not to do it until they can get to court and hash it out.

That is Catholic canon law not state law. State law wins over Canon law. I agree that the church will allow her to baptize the child, but it won't be in "secret".

It is very cool. He, his wife and their child are coming over tomorrow to celebrate our son's bday with him. I find it much better to be friendly with him and I don't feel the need to try to one up him. We respect each other's position and opinions and work together to our children's best interest. That means ALL the children, his, mine and ours. You are welcome to check my history on my position that my children's stepmom is my best friend and the most wonderful person on earth.

Sorry, my bad. You are right, it won't be a secret baptism.

I believe you. It sounds great. I wish I had the same thing.

What I find interesting is that the OP has flitted around and wanted to baptise her child in three different churches:

I went to my church, a non denominational church, and a Lutheran church and made plans, each time foiled by a bum on a power trip.

That doesn't tell me that she has faith in one particular religion and believes they are interchangable. I can understand why dad has decided not to agree.

Hey OP do NOT post on other threads. Especially when you have no clue of the law and no concept of your own issues. What religion are you exactly?

Catholic, Lutheran or something else? Because quite frankly those churches all have different beliefs.

i got to be honest, argueing NOT taking the vaccine won't do much in court. this isn't like kim bassinger having her son botoxed.

this is just " i won't agree to it just to be an arse about it"

when my daughter becomes of age, she's getting that same series of shots.

And that is your (et al) choice. My 14 yo will not. For a wide variety of reasons. All of which are likely as valid as yours for having your daughter get them.
