The use of e-cigarettes among high school and middle school students has parents worried. With a lack of purchasing laws, kids are able to purchase e-cigarettes overseas without anyone knowing. Why are kids able to purchase these e-cigarettes so easily? Is it the cool thing to do because they see their friends smoking them? I will explore with research and information on these questions. Another avenue I will look at is the social effects if children don't smoke these e-cigarettes with their peers. Socially kids like to fit in with their peers and at what cost to their health? Before it is too late we need to search solutions on this fairly new addiction that kids have. Some believe that e-cigarettes are targeting young customers when developing their products. For example, the e-liquid used in e-cigarettes can come in a variety of flavors. People are concerned that some of the flavors may lure kids to trying the product, flavors like Gummy Bears, Bubblegum and Mountain Dew. Exploring this topic has made me realize that keeping an eye on our children is extremely important. Electronic cigarettes, sometimes called an e-cigarette or an electronic nicotine delivery device (ENDD), come in many different types of shapes and sizes. These devices act and like a cigarette. E-cigarettes provide a mouth and taste sensation similar to smoking and deliver a similar amount of nicotine to a cigarette, but did not have the tar and other toxins generated by pyrolysis or burning of tobacco. “E-cigarettes contain a battery powered heating device or atomizer that produces a nicotine vapor for inhalation, triggered by the pressure drop that occurs when the user inhales from the device. The cartridge contains nicotine, humectants (propylene glycol or glycerol) and flavors (e.g. mint or fruit)” (Cope, 2013). A growing concern with the use of e-cigarettes among high school and middle school students is what are having parents worried. With the lack of laws, kids are able to purchase e-cigarettes overseas without anyone knowing. In a survey conducted by the National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS), “Data from the 2011 and 2012 survey, a school-based, pencil-and-paper questionnaire given to U.S. middle and high school student, were used to estimate the prevalence of ever and current use of e-cigarettes, ever and current use of conventional cigarettes, and use of both. Among all middle school students, ever e-cigarette use increased from 3.3% to 6.8%. Among high school students, ever e-cigarette use increased from 4.7% to 10.0% during 2011–2012 (p<0.05), current e-cigarette use increased from 1.5% to 2.8% (p<0.05), and current use of both e-cigarettes and conventional cigarettes increased from 1.2% to 2.2% (p<0.05). In 2012, among high school ever e-cigarette users, 7.2% reported never smoking conventional cigarettes; among high school current e-cigarette users, 80.5% reported current conventional cigarette smoking. E-cigarette experimentation and recent use doubled among U.S. middle and high school students during 2011–2012, resulting in an estimated 1.78 million students having ever used e-cigarettes as of 2012. Moreover, in 2012, an estimated 160,000 students who reported ever using e-cigarettes had never used conventional cigarettes” (Corey, et al., 2013). One of many concerns with e-cigarette use of young students include the potential negative impact of nicotine on adolescent brain development, as well as the risk of nicotine addiction and the initiation of the use of conventional cigarettes or other tobacco product. This is a serious concern because the overall impact of e-cigarette use on public health remains uncertain. Some believe that e-cigarettes are targeting young customers when developing their products. For example, the e-liquid used in e-cigarettes can come in a variety of flavors. People are concerned that some of the flavors may lure kids to trying the product, flavors like Gummy Bears, Bubblegum and Mountain Dew. Many e-cigarette shops throughout the country require customers to be at least the age 18 years or older. Some online shops also require that customers verify their age to even enter the webpage. As a parent, there are numerous vape shops opening up around the neighborhood for instance one that opened across the street of an elementary school. The shop is called Vape Republik in National City, California. It is a fusion of an e-cigarette store and a bobba shop. A bobba shop serves slushy drink with chewy tapioca balls, is often a popular hang out spot for young kids to have a drink and play board games or watch movies. I asked the shop owner if he was concerned that his shop might be targeting young kids to try out e-cigarettes, his reply was no. He mentioned that he wanted vaping to be a socially acceptable hobby for adults and bring a family environment into his business. The targeted population for this program are the middle and high school students of National
