So what should you do if you suspect your teen or their friends may be juuling? The Surgeon General recommends parents:
-
Find the right moment. Rather than saying “we need to talk,” wait for a more natural moment, such as witnessing someone using an e-cigarette. Ask your teen what they think about the situation.
-
Be patient and ready to listen. Avoid criticism and encourage an open dialogue.
-
Be prepared to answer questions. Know the facts, and use credible information to answer any questions your teen may have.
-
Set a positive example. If you expect your teen to be tobacco-free, you should refrain from tobacco use of any kind as well.
