Nearly a dozen communities across the state within the past year have raised the age for tobacco sales higher than 18 years old, evidence of a slow-spreading movement that activists say will reduce cigarette use among teens. Most states, including Massachusetts, allow 18-year-olds to buy tobacco products. Alaska, Alabama, Utah and New Jersey are the exceptions, all of which have pushed the legal age to 19.
Children and cigarette smoking are a bad combination. Statistics show that 90% of adult smokers started smoking as children. Each day in the United States, 3,450 kids between 12 and 17 years old smoke their first cigarette, about one-quarter of them will become daily smokers.any kids start using tobacco by age 11, and many are addicted by age 14. Try talking to your children about smoking before school, on the way to practice or rehearsals, or after dinner. Parents must make sure children understand the dangers of smoking.
