Fortunately the 13 year olds are good to vape

Honestly, the minimum age for vaping should be increased to ∞.

I don't like it so i don't want other independent adults to do it. I want everyone to want and do the same things i do all the time ! >:(

Right but there's some middle ground between no regulation at, and a total ban

It seems to me that raising the minimum age to infinity, like the comment I'm replying to, seems to be a clear call for a total ban. I'm all for not having kids vape, but it seems to me that's more an incompetent parenting issue.
