[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi! I am the author of this Slate piece, and also a dad in Arlington. Thanks to the OP for linking to it. I really urge everyone, especially people who doubt the claims of people in this thread, to read it. Narcan is quite easy to get all over the DC area; in Washington, DC, for example, city government lists dozens of free pickup sites:

The one thing I'd add, though, is that most trainers will recommend you do not keep it in your car, as Narcan does degrade in heat. Keep it in a bag or purse and bring it with you, and keep it in your house.

Thanks for reading, everyone![/quote]

Just wanted to say thank you, Dan, for this article. It's super helpful because it provides a path to actions we can take as parents of teens. I am terrified of the recent stories that have come out about fentanyl in drugs. I went through a rebellious phase as a teen and definitely took pills whose provenance I was completely clueless about.

(Also, I have been a fan of yours since I read your book How to be a Family - I still think of it sometimes!) [/quote]
