Send us a textDiscover the often-overlooked hazards of vaping as we sit down with Scott Brown, Deputy Head Teacher at Jebel Ali School, who discusses this growing epidemic in schools. Our in-depth conversation uncovers the stealthy nature of vaping, the allure of its marketing to teens, and the urgent necessity for comprehensive education on its risks. Scott brings to light the deceptive appeal of vaping as a "healthier" alternative to traditional smoking, and stresses the importance of empowering students with the truth about their targeted role in vape companies' marketing strategies. Prepare to be surprised as we discuss the addictive grip of salt-based nicotine and the cunningly enticing flavours designed to hook young users. Scott shares the significant struggles parents face in detecting their children's vaping habits and the profound importance of fostering open dialogue at home. We also tackle the controversial topic of how best to support students grappling with addiction, advocating for a compassionate approach that prioritizes education and mentorship over punitive measures. Join us for a compelling look at how educators and communities can unite to turn the tide against teen vaping.
