Not sure why it isn't quoting GGG, but the two yes or one no rule applies to everything we discuss regarding our children. Who we are comfortable letting them stay with or babysit, what we are comfortable allowing them do, etc. This isn't just regarding vaccines; it's a parenting technique that ensures we are either on the same page, or we close the book for a time before we revisit. (Another great example is having certain people around our children. If I think someone gives off creeper vibes, why would my husband's yes to that person being around our child trump my hesitancy?) I have to be deferential to my husband's hesitancy as we both want what's best for our child.



Your statements are leading; it's a 1 yes 1 no for both getting the vaccine or not getting it but not getting it will not ensure that our child WILL get Covid, just as getting the vaccine will not ensure our child will NOT get it.



And for Tiger, either way there is the potential for blame. If we don't get her vaccinated and she contracts Covid, my husband takes the blame. If we do get her vaccinated and it turns out she has a reaction or whatever, I take the blame. If we're both on the same page, we share the blame regardless of the outcome. What we don't want is a situation where there is resentment on either side.
