Family Tips

Unfortunately, tobacco products aren’t hard for teens to get. They can usually take a cigarette from an elder friend or sometimes even buy it from retailers that lawlessly sell it to minors.
Experts have conducted a 4-year research in Washington State. They have invited 14- to 17-year-olds who tried to buy tobacco to check whether retailers and restaurants are complying with the age requirements for tobacco sales.
Researchers admitted that convenience stores were found out the most likely to sell tobacco to minors. Grocery stores were the second in the list for underage tobacco sales.
Irrespective of the source where kids get cigarettes, they should realize that that experimentation can quickly turn into a highly addictive habit.
Accidental smoking at parties or while hanging out may seem for teens just a fun, bud it can be as addictive as cocaine or heroin. Besides studies have shown that under ages also are more likely to try marijuana, cocaine, heroin, or other illegal drugs.
