According to drugabuse.gov, "E-cigarettes are popular among teens and are now the most commonly used form of tobacco among youth in the United States."
We thought we would take this opportunity to share a recent article from Child Mind Institute (childmind.org) on teen vaping, as well as links to fact sheets and information sources. You'll find helpful explanations, a frank discussion of the risks, and tips for talking to your kids about vaping.
