Background - we are going to Pakistan for a family wedding, staying with my sister in law. It's a short trip of 5 days.
Today I took DS1 (7) and DS2 (5) for their travel jabs. Although they both want to go on the trip, unsurprisingly they weren't very happy about the jabs despite bribes of Haribo. DH is now on at me saying how ridiculous it is to subject them to injections for what is a very short trip, chances of picking anything up are vanishingly small etc.
AIBU? He thinks I've unnecessarily subjected them to pain and upset. I think it's dumb to take any risks on this. To be honest I don't know how high the risks are, just went with the travel advice. Nb they had all their normal childhood jabs and DH had no objections to those.

To give my kids inoculations for a short trip to a high risk country?
