Video showing toddler apparently using ecig

[Mark]

Many moons ago, as a moderator on this forum, I deleted a photograph of a cute child holding the posters ecig. Hopefully everyone will understand why.

There is no sure evidence that this was an ecig but some idiot has posted a video of a toddler using (apparently) one.

The video has since been removed following protests. As if we needed this

What a total knob... I vehemently keep my kids away from mine, they know that the only time they can touch them is if daddy specifically asks for it to be passed and that is once in a blue moon

Unfortunately,the video has been "saved" by the creator of the linked page.This means that the video will no doubt be headline news in some gutter press soon,and any ANTZ will be formatting their column inches as we discuss it here.

I give it a week before we see a DailyMail 'think of the children' campaign blaming everyone but the parents themselves for this video.

This 'Gateway to smoking' excuse / strawman argument really is this week's stick to beat vapers with isn't it

The parent(s) of this child are without argument highly irresponsible in allowing and encouraging their child to behave in this manner, regardless of whether the child is using tobacco or an NRT cig-alike product, but sadly either the gutter press will more than likely confuse their readers into believing that irresponsible = not responsible, and blame the vaping public in general for the parents' actions; yes, they really do believe their readers are that gullible

Any normal parent keeps their smoking kit away from their kids, whether they use tobacco, or vape. People who behave like those that encouraged their child to smoke/vape as seen on the video should neither be called parents, nor are they fit to have children.

Another piece I saw earlier said this moron was a scandinavian,and the images available clearly showed the toddler WAS blowing out vapour.

It was also cold so it could have been breathes on the cold...

Anyways, cigs will get blamed for irresponsible parenting.

If any government takes this as more of an excuse to ban e cigs rather than track down the abusive so called guardian of this child then there is a whole world of wrong we live in !
