I can't see the problem with this. If you want to vaccinate you daughter, go do it.
I have some daughters and I am really not sure whether to do it or not.
There are sometimes side effects with vaccinations, and unless I'm mistaken, this doesn't get ALL the hpv, so while decreasing chances of HPV, it does not eliminate them.
There is also the chance that anyone with this vaccination will feel immune to STD's and make it easier to give in to the urge to have sex. I don't think this can be understated, it is one less thing to worry about and therefore makes sex that much less dangerous.
