[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can get your kids narcan and teach them to use it. Nothing stopping you. [/quote]

but they can't carry it in schools[/quote]
So then where is this big brain logic of posting it all around schools and training kids in how to use it coming from? [/quote]

I think people are hoping schools will change. But also kids aren't in school 24/7 and plenty of parents are sending kids to school with narcan anyway.

I also think schools should have test strips available. [/quote]

What good are test strips??  What am I missing here?   Are teens now supposed to run chemistry labs on illicit pills?  Or teachers?  Why?   [/quote]

It would be the same as handling out condoms to kids. The test strips would show is fentanyl is present. If kids are thinking they are taking Percocet but fentanyl is shown to be present hopefully they will be more cautious?

Like I absolutely get and have talked to my kid ENDLESSLY well before this overdose happened about this. I have family first hand experience and this isn’t new.

My kid rolls their eyes every-time because at this point I don’t think they will do pills. BUT I also want them to know that IF they do there’s measures they can take to make sure they don’t die. [/quote]
