Abstract | The most frequent dilemmas associated with the implementation of immunization appear in connection with necessary and imperative, voluntary and compulsory, individual and group immunization. The parents assume the role of expert and moral judges. At first they are not even conscious of the burden of deciding in the name of the child. In a certain period of the child's life they pride themselves on making decisions in his name. Later on in his life, will the child consider these decisions as well meaning and sensible or will he raise questions about the wrong his parents had committed in his name because he had not yet been able or allowed to make his own decisions? | |
Summary | Najpogostejše dileme v zvezi z izvajanjem cepljena se pojavijo v povezavi s potrebnim in nujnim, prostovoljnim in obveznim, individualnim in skupinskim. Starši otrok se postavljajo v vloge strokovnih in moralnih razsodnikov. Teže bremena, ko so odločajo v imenu otrok, ki si jo naložijo na ramena, se v začetku sploh ne zavedajo. V nekem obdobju otrokovega življenja se ponašajo s sprejemanjem odločitev v njihovem imenu. Ali bodo otroci te odločitve v kasnejšem življenju tudi jemali kot dobronamerne in smiselne, ali se bodo morda spraševali o krivicah, ki so jih starši napravili v njihovem imenu, ko še sami niso bili sposobni ali celo niso smeli sprejemati odločitev? | |
