Evidence-based guide for parents, educators, and community leaders, this book explains how casual experimentation with cigarettes, vapes, and nicotine products can quickly become lifelong addiction. Combining the latest research with practical strategies, it offers clear signs to watch for, conversation starters that actually work, and school- and home-based prevention techniques. Readable, compassionate, and action-focused, this book empowers adults to intervene early, reduce risk factors, and create environments that help teens choose health over habit.
