Introduction

Nicotine addiction is an emerging and complex challenge for young people, particularly with the rise of vaping and the perception that it is less harmful than traditional smoking. However, nicotine is a highly addictive substance that can impact brain development, mood and concentration. For many young people, what begins as experimentation can quickly lead to dependence, often driven by social influences, stress or curiosity.

How adults respond is critical. By taking a calm, informed and consistent approach, conversations about nicotine can become opportunities to build awareness, strengthen decision-making and support healthier choices.
