considering the dangers, it’s crazy that middle and high schoolers everywhere are vaping at such a young ages. High school seniors went from 28% of students vaping to 37% in 2019. 8th-grade students went from 13.3% in 2017\u00a0to 17.6% in 2019.

Ghassan Zahr, an 8th grader noted, \u201c I\u2019ve sold and used vapes before because of the flavors. My friends using them made me want to get my own.\u201d However, Ghassan soon understood the dangers, \u201cI stopped using vape a while ago, it’s not good for kids or anybody really.\u201d\u00a0
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) banned vaping flavors in October, 2019. Vaping flavors such as mint, mango, strawberry, bubble gum, and similar flavors were taken off the market because of their appeal to people under the age of 18.

Brenda Coram , DPS custodian believes that , \u201c Vaping is a trend because the flavors and odors, it\u2019s something\u00a0 new and everyone wants to be apart of that.\u201d

Doctors are reporting, in 2019, there has been an increase from 1,299 to a week later 1,479 lung injuries caused by e-cigarettes products in 49 states.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elissa Fares,a high school student, claimed \u201cI\u2019ve been asked to vape and it\u2019s everywhere in high school, every bathroom. Teachers don\u2019t let us use bathroom passes because they think we are gonna go vape. If someone asks me to vape I just say no.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to CNN News, a\u00a0judge in Massachusetts ruled on Monday, October 21, 2019 that vaping and all e-cigarettes products can remain but there have to be a few changes.\u00a0\u00a0Many believe states shouldn’t have that decision to make, there should be a national rules.

Elissa Fares stated, \u201cI think vaping is a trend because it was introduced as a healthier way of smoking and it was a lie. People saw other people doing it so they started.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kroger, a large chain grocery store is discontinuing selling vaping pens and e-cigarettes at all stores and fuel centers due to the increase in the complex regulatory environment issues associated with these products.\u00a0 Other large chains are also moving away from selling vaping products also.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yasmine Berry, middle school counselor at Unis Middle School stated, \u201c The smell of vape is not the nasty smell of cigarettes. Vape looks cool whereas cigarettes look ugly which people think makes vaping better.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0People vape to be cool and when they feel depressed, vape is bad for you and it\u2019s only slightly better than cigarettes. The truth is they are both bad for your health.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vaping would be very hard to ban and stop everyone from doing it. Although vaping is unhealthy and risking lives, its a big money business. The question we are left with is will the younger generations choose health over popularity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
