Vaping

Talking to your child about vaping

You may not feel comfortable about it, but it’s a good idea to chat about the issues of vaping with your child, as part of your everyday conversations. The more open you are about topics, like vaping, the more likely your child will come to you if they have any issues. Vapes contain nicotine and may quickly become harmfully addictive for young people. This can affect their concentration and impact their ability to learn and study. Nicotine withdrawal can also disrupt sleep and may cause headaches. It can also affect their mental health and mood.
