Every generation has some product/ingredient that they didn’t know was dangerous at the time: tobacco, lead, asbestos, etc. What is that item for this generation? (lemmy.world)

Well yes, and cigarettes are worse than vaping. But I hope you wouldn't encourage children to vape just because it's better than cigarettes, given there's a good deal we don't know and many mixed regulations/enforcements.

If I had kids I'd avoid giving them artificial sweeteners and excessive sugar. I don't judge parents who don't though.
