When I was a kid, we all rode bikes...everywhere. We went on road, off road, built our own Evil Knievel ramps at the bottom of hills to jump as far as we could, crashed often, went way too fast, didn't pay attention much to traffic signs and many times, put more people on one bike than belonged on one bike. No one wore helmets (except the special kid down the block who always wore a Green Bay Packers helmet in Bears country. No one cared, we accepted him anyways) and, with the exception of someone who knew someone who knew someone who knew someone, no one got a brain injury. Then they came out with bike helmets...for the children. To save them from brain injuries.
Now fewer kids ride bikes. They sit indoors playing Pro BMX on XBOX and have that indoor, sickly look of POW's. We've done an awesome job of protecting the children from sunlight, fresh air and exercise.

Because we need to keep them safe from the evils of E Cigs.
Perspective.
No problem allowing them to purchase extremely explosive liquids, with extremely combustible fumes that cause cancer, and allow them to fill sealed detonation devices every day.
We tax them on purchase of the liquid as well.
Every time they fill their tank at the has pump.
We teach them to do this at 16 and cut them loose on society.
But e cigs ?
Think of the children.

I have a 7 and a 17 year old. I have been vaping for about 2 years. From my perspective, I tell my 17 year old he cannot vape... when he's 18, he can do what he wants, but until then, I cannot condone it. I have thought about what would happen if I did catch him... With illegal substances, he would be seriously punished. With tobacco cigarettes, they're not allowed in the house (they never were, even when I smoked). With vaping, I would take it away, and give it back to him when he does turn 18. As far as my 7 year old goes, I told him that ecigarettes are like a type of medicine that keeps me from smoking. he knows to stay away from them, and not to touch an eliquid bottle if he sees one. All my eliquids have childproof bottles as mandatory. Do I vape with my sons around, Yes and no. I do vape, but I don't vape close to him. In the car, I abstain or lower the wattage way down.
I vape close to a 6mg eliquid... which is low. I usually prefer single coil, .6-1.0 ohms at about 15 watts. It's not a cloud chaser, but it does produce a decent amount of vapor. I rarely see vapor in the air, so I believe their nicotine intake is pretty well close to nil. I never have taken my child into a vape shop and never will. My thoughts are... if you can keep your child away, then by all means do so. If I feel so addicted that I need to vape close to my children like in a car, then it's an addiction that I don't need to have. Whether or not it's safe is irrelevant.

Just give them brain chemistry altering chemicals and tell them to just be happy. Then wonder why they snap and go on a shooting spree.
But god forbid they be in the same room with a vapor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kids don't care, unless someone told them otherwise. I remember the day's when i was a little boy and my mom would sit next to me in the airplane smoking a cigaret. I have no memory that i ever complained to her that a cigarette stinks. I can't even remember thinking that it stinked.. it didn't at the time, it was normal....
Smoked around my child; he's now about to celebrate his 27th b-day, so I reckon he survived it. I'd vape around him too, even if he was half his current age.

My dad gave me cigarettes at 9 and my mom put whiskey in my bottle I turned out fine!

Amen to that!!! I told those idiots at the hospital that if they got any wild ideas of cutting off a certain part of my son's anatomy, I'd be back to cut off some part of theirs! And also, if they stuck a pacifier in his mouth, I'd be back to stick something in theirs that they definitely wouldn't like! I am TIRED of seeing 3 yr olds with pacifiers!!!

The Children will change your life forever. Wear a condom, or you could end up with The Children. Or simply paying for The Children that you can't even vape around.
I wonder if I can get handicap plates because Im not a whole person being some of my man hood was sniped away by no choice of my own.
Leaving intactivism alone.... the notable fact is that it was decided to be Parent's Discretion not the Government's one. Yet when it comes to strawberry flavor suddenly the Parents can't have any saying. Something's really amiss.
Intactivism? Really? We're worried about this? We have first world problems and too much time on our hands if we're concerned our kids johnsons don't have turtlenecks.
