But its ok to pump the kids with attention disorder meds which is a form of speed.
Rocker, you've touched on one reason why I'm not horrified by the notion of teens vaping, even with nicotine. As a special needs teacher, I realized that virtually every ADD/ADHD student began smoking as a teenager---and then stopped using nasty meds. I know so many kids that were sooo happy that they no longer needed their meds, which most truly hated. Yes, there truly are medical uses for demon nicotine.

Its not the nic thats bad,its the toxic chemicals they add to it.Like tobaccco has a chemicial added to boost nic to the brain so you get a rush and a dizzy feeling.Natural extracted nic is actually beneficial to the body and mind in small amouts,just like caffine and tea.The greedy govt and BT will kill you just to make a buck.

Children drink coffee. According t you, there is "literally no reason" for that to be allowed.

Legal driving age is 15 or 16 in most cases. According to you, "literally no reason".

Your logic has no reason behind it. It's an emotional response with no thought.

I know someone who's teen has ADHD. It is true that nicotine does help with it. So their Dr suggested vaping.

Busy wknd- no time to read all the posts so in case this has been asked/answered- my apologies.

11 yrs old posting in the new member section. How's that even happen?

When we're talking about children *stealing* cigarettes we are talking about the *action*.

One who steals is a thief and that's the direction I've taking when talking to children about smoking.

At the end of the day they're still going to do what they want or what they can get away with.

I think that's what this is really about; BT vs. BP over control of nicotine (NRT) products. We are just caught in the middle and don't benefit either one of them.

until one of them gets the goods. then we're paychecks and statistics and they'll do anything to keep us coming back.
