[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I only have girls (14, 16) and I purchase condoms and leave them in the bathroom under the counter. They should always have 2 on them. Give them to friends too. It shouldn’t be just the guy’s responsibility. They also carry Narcan. [b]Does that mean I am ok with them being around drugs?[/b][/quote] I mean, yes, it does. What do you think it means?[/quote] You're crazy. I've shown my goody-two-shoes kids how to administer Narcan if they should ever be in that position as well as telling them how to do CPR and use a defibrillator. It's that kind of world now. [/quote] Do you have nicotine patches in case they get hooked on cigarettes or tobacco vapes and need them? Do you have suboxone just in case they become addicted to opioids? If yes, then your logic with condoms and Narcan is consistent. If not, ask yourself why you’re stocking condoms and Narcan, even though you insist you’re not encouraging adolescent sex and drug use, just in case but not those other items, just in case.[/quote] How uneducated are you? Condoms and Narcan are used preventively and needed is spur of the moment situations. Plenty of teen deaths related to fentanyl laced drugs, even in plain weed. Narcan is sold over the counter at all drug stores, is at all middle and high school and all educators know how to administer. We have Narcan in our own house. No one here uses drugs, but god forbid someone tries something in our home unknown to us, I want them protected. My kids also know CPR and we have a life vac device and they know how to use that too. And we show them how to use our kitchen fire extinguisher I am so sick of head in the sand parents thinking their teens will never do wrong. Never make a mistake and will never need condoms, narcan etc… Remember the Dateline episode where only 1 out of 12 kids tested did not get into a car of someone under the influence? These were all honor roll students whose parents all swore they wouldn’t get in the car and would call them instead. What about to catch a predator? How about the teen that OD’d last week in Arlington. The drunk driving accident in Urbana. Teens do impulsive stupid things sometimes. Better be prepared. [/quote]
