That's on the parents, not a product that can only legally be sold to adults.

Kids will always do shit they're not supposed to. I'd much rather they be vaping than smoking.

I never said we need to ban vaping. I said we need to stop pretending it's harmless. This is exactly what happened with smoking: everyone knew it was bad for them, but people who wanted to believe otherwise minimized the danger of smoking for decades. Let's not make the same mistake again.
