Yes. Even though my kid is severely needle phobic, she says she wants to get the vaccine as soon as she’s eligible. She’s only ten so it will be a while before she has to mentally prepare herself for it. She hates needles but she hates the thought of getting Covid more.

Mine will get it as soon as it is safe to do so. They are all under 12, so we’ve got a while yet.

My kids are (almost) 19 and 22 so I don't make vaccine decisions for them anymore. Both are currently away at college. My older DD has had both shots already and my youngest gets her first one tomorrow. She would have gone in earlier but she's on her university's soccer team and they just finished up their conference tournament. She didn't want to risk missing a game if she had side effects.

Definitely! Our youngest will be 12 in June. He and his 14yo will get it as soon as it is available for their ages. Out young adult kids will get it later this month.

As soon as it’s approved for their age groups. One is 13 and one 11.

My sons will get theirs as soon as I can get appointments. No reservations about it.

My oldest (21) is fully vaccinated. Middle ds (18) has an appointment scheduled in May when he gets home. Youngest ds turns 16 in early june, we’re waiting for his birthday.

Both my college students had their first shot already. No problems. They were both excited to get it as they are eager to go back to a more normal life.

My daughter is 13 and once it is approved for her age group it will be SHOTS!SHOTS!SHOTS! up in here. My husband and I are fully vaxxed and I'm anxious for her to be as well - it will be a sense of relief for her to have it.

Yes and they both have had it. I never gave it a second thought and no one really should.

Both of our kids are over 21 and it is their decision but when asked, I have told them to wait.

Yes. All 3 of mine (17yo and 2 16yo) are getting they're first shot tomorrow. Unfortunately, dd#1 started with a migraine last night and they tend to last a week... so she's going to have to go without Tylenol tomorrow until after her shot.

Too young right now, but we did unsuccessfully pursue drug trials for her. So yes. This is us. DD is 13 and when we asked if she'd like to be registered for vaccine trials, she was enthusiastically in favor. We haven't been selected for anything so far at least (not sure if more are still starting), but we'll absolutely get her a vax as quickly as we can, one way or another.
