I am now about to turn 23 and I have no desire to smoke another cigarette. I hope that mentality continues with me throughout the rest of my life. Smoking is not a joke and should not be taken lightly. It is a very unhealthy habit that can lead to many negative consequences. I do not believe there is one positive thing to say about smoking, whether it is electronic or not. <br />My views on this issue is that I agree that it is unacceptable for children >18 years old to be involved with any type of tobacco or nicotine product. Children or young adults are unaware of what the long term affects may be. Most children/young adults to not comprehend that life in most cases is very long and the decisions they make everyday can influence their lives in the near future and long into the future. With that, to have a product that can attract these young people, naive easily influenced, poor decision making people is absurd. I do not believe anybody who has a child or is educated enough to know that this is wrong. A product that can lead to a very unhealthy and addictive habit throughout their live, a product that can lead to traditional cigarettes and we all know the effects of smoking, that if we continue to allow this product shape the future of our young children we will be faced with a new society in which is too unhealthy to work and will have the same medical costs as I will when I am well into my later years retired and on my deathbed because of old age. But unfortunately if we do not somehow come up with a solution to restrict this product to the youth than it might happen that they end up on the same deathbed right next to me.Mollyskiezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05925863114406314361noreply@blogger.com
