Rejected petition Laws for vaping in public areas designed for children to be same as smoking.
It is unethical to endorse any act of smoking around children. Although vaping is less harmful than smoking (long term effects to health unknown), and is effectively helping smokers quit, vaping laws should apply in areas designed for children, keeping them vape free or in assigned vaping areas.
