I have 4 teens that smoke. As I see it, teens "don't think", because they have not experienced the problems of smoking yet. They are not worried about heart problems from it, most are not coughing up a lung in the morning yet, nor get out of breath climbing a flight of stairs......and most don't even remember being able to smoke everywhere so their limited smoking places is nothing to bother them.
As I see it most of us have quit smoking for mainly health reasons (some money reasons), but really, how many of us would have just quit because it tasted better? None I believe.
E-Cigarettes are just too much "work" for most teens.Teens are into instant gradification, they are not willing to play around and find one that works for them.
With all that being said....I had given all 4 of my teens an e-cigarette....one,just like everything else in her life she lost after a week and had no desire to even look for it.
The second maybe used it once and became unintrested (end of that story).The third wouldonly use it when she ran out of cigarettes and was too lazy to run out and get some....needless to say she no longer uses hers.
Another son was the only one to take to it, prefered it over cigarettes and still does (just got him a mod for his birthday).
Sooooo out of 4 only one was impressed enough to use it, the rest think it is more trouble than it is worth.
I am also sure that most of their friends that came around tried it, I have not seen one say "hey, if you don't want it anymore I will take it", so yeah, not a big turn on for teens in my opnion.
