lets have a civil factual debate aboug E-Cigs

98. It's illegal for kids to smoke, drink, etc

if some person at a convenience store sells a kid of pack of cigarettes (and many do, constantly) that adult certainly disobeyed the law. Ultimately though, yes it's up to the kid's parent or guardian find out and do something about it.

If you're a bystander and somehow you know the cashier sold a kid a pack of cigarettes, by all means report them! We as a society can do what we can to raise kids, however, it's not ultimately our jobs to raise other people's children.

So you can be the most vigilant parent in the universe, but someone somewhere is probably giving your kid something you'd likely not approve of. Maybe they're watching porn on their friends iPod, maybe they're smoking weed or cigs, maybe they're having sex or drinking.

I'm saying yes, it takes a village to raise a child. However, it's the parents who ultimately are responsible for raising there kids. There are parents out there who just don't care if their kids smoke or drink, or whatever. If you walked up to a parent like that and said "hey, that guy over there just sold your kid some cigarettes" and that parent says "so what?", what are your options?
