How long was he smoking for?

I don't want to come across sounding like your choice was wrong, but I feel as if you could make a goal to remove your son from any nicotine related things.

I feel that once someone stops smoking they don't have the same urge to vape as they did to smoke. Once those time consuming thoughts of "when am I going to have my next cigarette" subside I feel that you can slowly vape less and less overtime with the same vape satisfaction.

I'm going to be 25 soon and I smoked since I was 18-23. I know it's not a long time, but I did smoke a good amount. I have no urge to smoke anymore, but I also went through a phase where I wanted my device and rta anywhere I went. So far this year I've been able to vape for much less during the day, usually only at night, sometimes not vaping at all the whole day without any craving.

I still love to vape, but I think young people like myself who haven't been hooked for many many years can really quit all nicotine related things. Coffee on the other hand will stay forever.

@MattyTny - he smoked just as much as curious teenagers smoke thru high school... i smoked in high school but it was more a rebellious thing which turned into a bad habit that kills millions of people a year... so better he experiments with vaping "zero" nicotine vs smoking a pack of cowboy killers... like i said i smoked for 20-30 years - vaping gives me the satisfaction of the ceremony of holding a vape - inhaling and blowing out vapor ( or clouds lol)

and face it... i'm speaking about me... if my kids experiment with things the way i did in the 70's and 80's -- they will need real world first hand advice from people who have actually been thru those travels.... ;)

no fear mongering - I'm just gonna be real with them... (like yes "I've been to a couple great full dead concerts... yes I experienced life at the Haight and Ashbury... and NO! I was not at Woodstock! lol

vape safe:vapor:
