I feel like vaping has become more of a trend or something that teens do to try to be cool. I know a lot of kids who vape and they are addicted to it. To me this is very disappointing that they have chosen to do this because it has so many negative long term affects on their bodies. Another concern is that if teens are caught with vapes or jewels they can get kicked off of their sports teams. They should have consequences for their choices so that more people are less likely to choose to vape. I think that it is sad that companies target teens and make them think that it is cool to vape.

I'm not really surprised by this at all. In the beginning vapes were hailed as the new, and safe way to get a buzz. Nicotine without the health risks! But this of course is not true. The only thing that your lungs are meant to breathe in is air. Anything else will have adverse health effects. Not to mention the artificiality of vapes. Mystery chemicals made in some industrial plants in China. We still don’t know what long term vaping does to someone. That takes a whole generation to find out.  But we have some short term studies, and it's not looking good. “Several recent observational studies uncovered a link between regular vaping and an increased risk of heart attack, stroke, and coronary artery disease.” But common sense tells me inhaling strawberry flavored petro-chemicals is bad.

I believe that Vaping is a real concern among teen/youth. I think this is a big concern because at that age we are more impressionable and that leads for a trend to fit in and look cool. Because the Juul looks like a cool tech gadget kids are more likely to trust it easier then cigarettes. Also Vaping as a whole has become more discreet and more able to be hidden. All of this leads teen/youth to be drawn to it and get addicted to Vaping, Another point is that Juuls have a lot more nicotine compared to cigarettes. That is why i think Vaping poses a real concern.

Vaping was popularized by similar marketing strategies to the cigarette companies, which were used in the early 20th century, but are now illegal. This is an issue, as it allows for companies to use more manipulative strategies to encourage youth to start vaping. I.W.P.

Vaping was first created for smokers to stop smoking cigarettes, but now it's a trend for most young adults and teens. Most people don't understand the long-term effects that come along with vaping. People make vaping look so fun and cool, with nice smells and cool tricks, when it's the opposite. A.S

Vaping is more popular among teens because of its attractive "modern" look and fruity flavors. Because of this Teens who have never smoked before are doing it now. This is very dangerous because they contain so much nicotine and researchers aren't entirely sure of the side effects and health concerns. Even though Juuls started out by helping adults to quit smoking, they have become more dangerous and harmful, especially for teens.

I think that vaping is a very very bad thing. I think that it only harms people an doesn't help them at all. I think that to many people vape, I think that if people didn't vape they would be less depressed because there is studies that when people vape they are more likely to be depressed. People have also been having brain problems and seizures. Colton F.

Vaping is an alternative for people who were hard smokers that are much older the teens. This means if teens are vaping they have a high chance of hurting themself more because they are probably doing it as much as a hard smoker did before the vape.

Vaping has became very popular.Especially to young adults and teens. Lots of teens vape to look cool to other people then become addicted. We do not know the risk of vaping long term so it could be very bad. Also we dont really know the short term effects either. -Haylie Teater

I agree with teenagers vaping so they appear cool. Vape tricks are very popular and many would describe it as cool.

Vaping has risen in popularity in the past few years. There is no denying that Juul made a product that is appealing to the eye and as such attracted the younger generations. But I wouldn't say that's the only thing that attracted people who vape. It's the fact that it's safer than normal cigarettes. Overall, I think no matter the consequences of using vaping people are still going to do it just like smoking.

So I noticed that you wrote that vaping is attractive to young people because of the flavoring and the colors. I agree, but I also read the part where you wrote that it can sometimes help people with anxiety. What do you mean by that? Can you explain a little further on that, please?

Over the past few years, vaping has become very popular for teenagers. They are intrigued by the thought of flavors, being "cool", and being like everyone else. A lot of the population is either oblivious to the harmful effects or they are just ignoring them. But ignoring them isn't going to stop the harm from happening. E-cigarettes can explode at any point. The article stated that a doctor thinks it was the battery that caused the explosion to happen while the 17-year-old boy was using the e-cigarette.
All in all, we really don't know what e-cigarettes can really do to the body. All we can do is hope for the best, I guess.

your right vaping hasnt been around long and  we dont know the long-term effects are but maybe we will one day

Vaping is definitely attractive to young people because of the color and flaver but it can be very harmful for certain people. Althought sometimes it can help with people with anxiety and struggle with depression. it can definitely cause problems in the long run.

# data[].attributes.body
Vaping hasn't been around long enough to really know what the long-term effects are, and since they come in fruity flavors a lot of teens think that they aren't harmful which isn't at all true.
