[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If so, where do you keep it?
I was thinking of keeping it in each car's glove compartment. 
My kids are typical "good" high schoolers but they do go out on the weekends. [/quote]

Oh wow.
Our definitions are very different.
To me “good” assumes a basic expectation that you’re obeying the law.
Narcan is to counteract an opioid overdose. This is “going out on the weekends” for “good” kids??
What you described sounds like “risky” high schoolers.
Maybe my standards are just too high.

But that said, it sounds like you know your kids. So if you think you have a need to have Narcan in your cars, better safe than sorry. [/quote]

NP.

Keeping it around (after training) has ABSOLUTELY ZERO to do with how “good” anyone thinks their kids are.  It has to do with saving a life; possibly within your own family; possibly someone else’s child.  That’s it.

Any yes PP, your standards are unrealistic.  My kids’ school is probably better than your kids school (ie 2nd/3rd best in the entire state!).  My kids are extremely well accomplished. And my kids are trained on how to use Narcan on others.

The school does not allow kids to carry Narcan.  I don’t care.  My kids carry it.  If my children end up saving a life while violating a stupid policy, I will be happy to litigate if they attempt to discipline my children.

Will my own kids need Narcan?  I highly doubt it - but I refuse to fall into the false complacency of “not my kid!” syndrome.

There is always a chance - no matter how slim - that your kids, my kids, or any kids (no matter how “good” the parents think they are - might ingest fentanyl.

Don’t kid yourself.  It is out there.  Every child is at risk.[/quote]
