I know in WA state at 13yo a child can legally request medication. In my line of work ran into parents who didn't want to treat conditions such as ADHD and the social worker had to inform the child that they had rights at 13 if they wanted to proceed. Unfortunately most follow the parents thinking.

Not senior enough that you had it as a kid? I'm sure I did, but got a shot for "at least" rubella in '79-80, as my mom couldn't remember if I'd had it. It might have been a combo shot. We were planning our family at that time so went w/safe. We all mask all the time, so hopefully we're safe.
