Question: How can we make adolescents more aware of the dangers of E-cigarettes and prevent them from addiction?

 

Answer: EDUCATE THE YOUTH

 

The Proper Solution: Students must be required to take a year-long general education class regarding the dangers of E-cigarettes in their freshman year of high school.

 

By quickly informing incoming high schoolers about the downsides of E-cigarettes, they will be less inclined to experiment with these products. Classes on these topics are not taught nationwide, so many young teenagers are unaware of the negative side effects involved with E-cigarettes.

 

Schools will save thousands of students from a lifetime of addiction, depression, and possible death. Sign this petition here so these classes are implemented across the world!
