[QUOTE="Blindsided, post: 751782, member: 23811"] It's my understanding that these reported issues are with vaping products purchased on the street. I think we should all be cautious and use common sense. STOP until we know for sure. Dr. Oz actually weighed in on it and basically says the same. I know several people who have been able to quit smoking because of vaping. People die every day from cigarette effects, lung cancer, obstructive lung disease, etc. I hope we get some solid research on this. As for the kids using it, most likely they are black market and that is VERY concerning. Sit down with the kids and show them the effects of smoking and now possibly vaping. Harping at them can often drive them to be more dedicated to it, after all, they know x,y,z peers are doing it and have no problems. As for our adult children, we have no control. As for Kay, she doesn't believe in vaccinations either, right? What are the chances she will think her choices are bad choices. You have no control over her choices, so your worry is only going to affect one person, YOU! We have become so traumatized by our children and that is fuel for worry, no doubt. A good quote that I can say really applies to me on some days. But, at least not all days. Baby steps. “Worry is a thin stream of fear trickling through the mind. If encouraged, it cuts a channel into which all other thoughts are drained.” [B]– Arthur Somers Roche[/B] [B][/B] ;) your fellow worry wart. [/QUOTE]
