That is, until the Boxer's or Harkin's or Diana F's of the world hold up a Bottle of this e-liquid during a FDA Deeming Senate approval Hearing.
Does this seem right to you?

They will hold up a pile of dog poo to further their agenda. After all, kids get into dog poo all the time.
Maybe ejuice companies could have an option for bad/lazy parents but for the rest of us, I like the bottle/label designs
If you're leaving a poisonous substance out for your children to get into, it isn't the bottles fault, it's yours.

I know the kind of world we live in now - and it sucks.
Politicians will use any and every tool they can - especially lying and cheating - to get what they want (more power and more money)
Corporations - see above
Parents - there are exceptions, but far too many want the rest of the world to be "childproof" so they don't have to do their job
I'm desperately trying to maintain that I am a responsible adult, and deserve to be treated as such.
(The design really isn't that appealing, but it's "supposedly" a free country, let them make their design mistakes - hopefully they'll hire a designer next time. And I highly doubt any of the people involved in this design had any thoughts about children, since that was not who they intended to sell to)

OMG! May as well ban fruitloops!
Check this out......are we now gonna go on a quest to not buy all jooz that comes in cute bottles?
Hell even Vodka has names that is more appealing to children but it's for adults. Anyone here stop buying it for the sake of the children?
Yeah... But there are a lot of Registered Voters and Campaign Contributors who are on the Fence when it comes to e-Cigarettes.
When a Boxer or Dinae F holds up Dog Crap and says that e-Cigarettes needs to be Severely Regulated because they are being Marketed towards Kids, Nobody is going to Listen.
But when they Hold up the OP's Bottle of e-Liquid and say the Same Thing, MANY People are going to Stand Up and Listen.
Do we Need this type of Attention? Or the Message it sends to Many People?
Marketing is marketing. Suggesting this manufactures choice of graphics is designed to appeal to children only fuels the anti`s weak rationalizations.
I've only been to a few vape shops, but none that I have been to have their bottles displayed out front at "kiddie eye level" to entice their youthful, innocent desires. Don't buy it, or if you do, keep it in a secure place if you have "children" around. If they are old enough to peruse the internet and stumble across it, they are old enough to know the difference.
Could this be a contributing negative in the argument against vaping? Absolutely. But it is just one small cog in the wheels of regulation.

Just curious...does anyone here think this looks like candy? I'll come back and explain later after reading your responses.

BTW - These people who are Frothing at the Mouth about the way some brands of e-Cigarettes are Marketed are also the Ones who will say if the coming FDA Deeming Regulations are Strict Enough.

You said it better than I was going to. I agree with you. I like cute designs. I've posted pictures on twitter of eliquids with cute designs on the labels and been attacked for buying them. I buy what I like, If others don't like it, they don't have to buy it.
...and why didn't they go after Sanrio for marketing something like this???
(although I will admit to having a 'Hello Kitty' watch...)
I love Hello Kitty and would be all over some HK e-liquid.

No, it looks like medicine to me.
I was thinking of buying a really popular eliquid recently. I always keep my eliquids out of reach from my kids, but I just couldn't bring myself to buy this particular eliquid because of the packaging and the thought that it just looked too much like something kids would mistake for candy. Anyway this is the eliquid:
I hate all the media reports that say eliquid flavours are attracting kids when vendors never sell to under 18s, but I think packaging like this isn't helping either.
I've seen worse.
If you enjoy the flavor but don't agree with the logo, you can buy empty e-juice bottles super-cheap online and store the juice in those, if that isn't too much trouble. Labeling is as cheap as a Sharpee pen.
Otherwise, keep that blank OUT OF REACH of kids. That falls squarely and entirely on the shoulders of parents.
And if you don't agree with the logo, don't buy it.
EDIT: P.S., I've had that flavor before and it's quite tasty.
It is medicine. I have to take it when I eat. Adults never notice, but every kid does. And every kid has thought it was candy ?? I tell them its medicine, but they don't believe me. And next thing I know there's a giant scene because kid is angry that I have candy and s/he doesn't. I've never understood why they all think its candy.
So I bring this up because that e liquid sure looks yummier than my medicine. If kids think my medicine is candy, I don't doubt they would think that e liquid is.

im not sure about liquid candy. I wouldnt be tempted to go through the pantry open a bottle of liquid and gurgle it down.
Those flintstone vitamins though....
or Vitamin gummies.
I went through the cabinet as a kid and ate a bunch of flintstones vitamins and a bunch of these orange super sweet tasting candy vitamin c tablets i think they were. Apparently you could get sick by eating too many vitamins, luckily somehow, I dont think i ever got sick.
