Juul has been labeled a teen addiction epidemic by the FDA and the scourge of high schools by concerned parents and the media alike. But, should we think again? One scientist says the devices could 'literally save a billion lives.'
I agree with the Doctor when it come to certain Teens who exhibit risk taking behavior are likely to try Cigarettes, Vaping, and Pot, it's not that one leads to another it's just that the type of person who tries one will likely try another if given the chance. We've been doing the anti-smoking thing for decades but kids are still smoking. In a perfect world we could give the kids good advice and they'd take it to heart and not smoke, vape, drink, text and drive, or jump off bridges with their friends but that has never worked. Any regulation that prevents kids from vaping is likely to backfire by steering them towards cigarettes which is certainly worse for them. I think a lot of the underage vaping is a fad and in the future while kids with risk taking mentalities will still try it I think long term use will drop once the fad is over, Smoking an electric pipe just lacks that "Cool" factor. Just imagine Motley Crue singing "Vaping in the boys room" or three or four Tuffs Vaping in the student Parking lot. It's just not the same it's really a bit Lame. I would say educate the kids about the dangers of addiction and costs, if you can't scare them away you may be able to convince them that it's a waste of money be explaining how much it costs a year to vape or smoke and discuss all the other cool things that they could buy with that money if they don't waste it on vape or cigarettes.
I've been vaping for 5 years. It's a great tool to help a person quit smoking and this how I've used them. I do not think it makes sense that it would be a gateway to cigarettes. Cigarettes are smelly, and much more harmful than e-cigs. Vapor doesn't stick to your clothes so you never stink.
Many people use vapes for reasons having nothing to do with tobacco. I've seen diabetic people use them to replace their sweets and it works for them. I think it's a good thing...and much less harmful.

Rather controversial. Is Juul good or bad, or still unknown?
