Rising Use of Sweet E-cigarettes Among Scottish Children.
Children as young as 11 found vaping in Scottish primary schools, with concerns of addiction and health risks.

An 11-year-old child was found vaping in a primary school, causing concern from management service providers in Ayrshire, Scotland, due to the surge of children using e-cigarettes.


Siobhain Brown, an MSP for Ayr, has expressed concern that brightly-colored and sweet-flavored products, including cotton candy, lemon drops, and coke bottle-shaped sweets, are "enticing young children into nicotine addiction.


The mother of a three-year-old child expressed shock over the increased use of electronic devices among teenagers and young adults. She added that she is concerned about the potential long-term health risks to children, as their bodies are still developing.


Mrs. Brown said, "Initially, I noticed a rise in the use of e-cigarettes or vaping among teenagers on the streets and outside of high schools. However, in recent months, local voters have been reporting children as young as 11 years old using e-cigarettes during primary school. I was shocked to hear this news because it is illegal for anyone under 18 to purchase e-cigarettes in Scotland.
