Walking home from Tesco, I walked past two young girls - like, they looked really young, definitely preteens - and one of them was casually smoking a cigarette. Is that a norm for kids nowadays?!  |

No I don't think it is ... I have three teenagers and they don't. They tell me most things and we have loads of my daughter's friends around most weekends .... I think it maybe depends if they grew up in a smoking household. |

i read the other day less young people smoke than ever before..far less than previous generations..they get a lot more education in school on the subject and the inability to buy them has worked really well! its a horrible sight to see an almost child with a cigarette...and im a smoker.. |

I also think it depends more on the area where they grow up and whether their parents some - more bizarre for me was a couple of weeks ago with my 14yr daughter in the car, she pointed a lad out and said he was in the year below her at school….. he had an e-cig |

"Not being funny but it depends on the neighbourhood 
Sweeping generalisation alert.
I lived in the posh neighbourhood and started smoking when I was 13.  "
Very true but generalisations often have a basis in truth. |

"I went to the theatre tonight and another woman came out to light up. She lit two and passed one to what I can only describe as a 10 year old  "
What did you see at the theatre? |

No but it used to be the norm in old fashioned times.
