Teen Vaping is evolving - today's "smart vapes" look like typical tech gadgets, not what they really are, which is nicotine delivery devices.
Truth is that these products contain nicotine, the highly addictive substance that can harm the developing teen brain. With millions of middle and high school students reporting use of e-cigarettes, parents need to stay vigilant and arm themselves with clear and practical information so that they can educate their growing children about the potential harms.
The Partnership to End Addiction has put together a 4-minute video, which outlines the dangers of vaping for teens. It explains how high-tech e-cigarettes are designed to appeal directly to young users. Celebrities and social media influencers are hired to promote flashy vape brands, while devices even feature built-in games like Tetris to try to attract teens to use these products that contain nicotine.
In this short, informative video, parents will learn how to talk to their teen about the real risks of teen vaping and how "smart vapes" brands target youth.
