I would never take a vaccine for something like the flu. We'ver rarely ever gotten it in the house, this year we did with the little kids, we dealt with it and moved on, they missed 3 days of school. Why should they be forced to get vaccinated for what is in most cases, a hyped up cold that goes away without much issue for the majority of people? We don't lilke getting poked and prodded for every little thing.
We didn't do chicken pox either (for the little ones, because the vaccine was too late for me), because in our minds that's just something kids should get and get over with b/c it's far more dangerous as an adult and we do not (as a trend in my family) get it more than once. Some things like MMR, hepatitis B(?), (typical stuff & usual school requirements) etc. we do get because it's in our best interest, but not things that only typically require a few "down days".
