3) Would your views and actions change if instead of vaping, you found them experimenting with alcohol? Explain your answer.

1.) You confront the girls and discuss the health risks involved. Vaping can lead to a lifetime of addiction which can cause issues way beyond just health.

2.) Vaping with or without nicotine has been shown to impact impulse control, especially in young adults whose brains have not fully developed yet. Some of these risks include mood disorders and permanent damage to parts of the brain responsible for memory, emotion and critical thinking. Vaping nicotine can also affect your heart health. Nicotine raises your blood pressure and spikes your adrenaline, resulting in increased heart rate and greater risk of a heart attack. The potential for coronary artery disease and blood circulation problems are also increased.
