The problem I have with it is that it reinforces what people say about it affecting the children.

Kids are going to try things. Kids are going to do stupid things. That's how they learn or at least I did. Now they just have the internet to document for their lifetime.

kids did it 2 million years ago. They will still be doing it 2 million years from now.

I would rather have kids vaping than stabbing other kids for not going to a dance with them.

I'm not clicking on it because I don't want to contribute to the views it's getting until I have more information on what this girl is saying. Is she telling teens to tell their parents and giving them ideas on what to say to their parents, or is she giving them ideas on how to sneak around and get their parents credit card info?

Shes not trying to be sneaky. Just tellin how she approached her dad and uncle, at first they said no, then it was not no, but not yes. So she takes that as ok. I dont think she has ANY idea of what shes actually doing. Seems like just another confused teen that thinks vaping is cool, so she wants to do it. I left a comment, was nice about it, hopefully she'll listen, others weren't as nice as I was lol.

I'm not really against teens vaping with their parents permission. I'm just not. I don't know. I think this is the least of evils they can do. I started smoking in high school myself. I wish vaping was around then. Maybe I wouldn't be having panic attacks from the lack of all the other chemicals in tobacco aside from nicotine that I am occasionally experiencing 6 months after I switched. Don't worry. They're subsiding. I suffered from GAD as it is, so the lack of those chemicals just kicked off symptoms I already had.

My sister vapes with my mother's consent. The consent came after a year of severe punishment that included getting sent to another state with a family member in an attempt to get her away from smoking friends and therapy. Nothing was working to get her to stop. The only other thing that would have ultimately worked was to pull her from school and homeschool her, which my mother was not in a position to do. Mortgage rates being what they are, my mother and stepfather MUST both work full time to keep up. I send my sister liquid and equipment so she never has to buy from any vendor, and we aren't sending a minor to anyone's website and potentially getting them in trouble. I simply send her what I don't use and it's enough. I send her these packages with our mother's consent. What's the problem with this?

Oh, I was saying I hope my second attempt at posting the video worked because my first attempt did not.

i know. things don't always come across in written form. it was a play on words, not necessarily related to what you were saying. i just thought the video of her retaliation was funny in that it showed that extreme measures don't always work out so well for the parents.

I have no problem with that. I have a problem with the video being up there to add fuel to the fire with the FDA, public, etc. I guess it's like one more nail in the coffin if that makes since.

I'm covering the receptionists desk at work, so I can't really go through the video at the moment. Is she telling kids to speak to their parents about vaping, or is she telling them how to pull one over on them?

I picked my kids up from school today and when driving home passed a small group of kids walking and one of them was vaping! I asked my kids if they knew them, my younger one did said he is in the same class...7th grade!

OK, I know I started smoking young but I could buy cigs from vending machines which was easy. It is not that easy to buy vape gear, at least it shouldn't be.

Lol.. I think it's funny she mentions her dad making a fool of himself yet she forgot to put away her "personal massager" before making the video.
Maybe it was intentional leaving it right there on the bed? I dunno, anyway

I noticed that too! Must be a guy thing...lol.

She said he "must be embarrassed", I was embarrassed and I don't even know her! I thank the good lord every day my kids haven't gone off the rails, at least not yet.

Video was a joke response, not actually the guy's daughter. She made another one explaining it since a lot of people were getting mad at her over it. Personal massager was intentional and part of the joke. lol

My sophomore in high school said some of the kids had used them. None of them are still using them by the end of the week. I have caught 10 year olds walking through the woods smoking swisher sweets.

I could not begin to say what stupid things I did 40 years ago. In 7th/8th grade I was sticking my mouth up to a beer truck tap thinking it was cool. I also had my first drink (well if you call it that). A few shots of Mad Dog 20/20.

Kids can and do have access to anything... why would it be any different with vape gear.
