WE RECENTLY asked if changes
to the legal smoking age would
deter teenage smokers because
they will not be able to legally buy
cigarettes,

I’m 19 years old and I recently
quit smoking. I've had students
come up to me and ask me to buy
cigarettes for them. I think people
under 19 will still be able to get

cigarettes no matter what the law

is. There wil! always be people
willing to buy cigarettes for them.

Whether or not the new smok-
ing law has an actual effect, it is
an indication of society’s con-
serted effort to stop kids smoking
and that they care. Even if it has
no effect, at least it’s a standard
setter and a demonstration of the
government’s concern and socie-
ty’s concern for the health of our
youth,

It woa't help to raise the age
because if somebody really wants
to smoke, they'll find a way to get
cigarettes. f don’t smoke, I’m only
12, but some kids my age will just
get them (cigarettes) from older
kids. It’s easy. :

The idea of teens saying that it
won't make a bit of difference is
ridiculous.

Obviously kids are now going to
have to get people over 19 (years
old) to buy their cigareties, and
anyone who is over 19, like
myself, has started to develop a

conscience,
With schools not allowing

smoking, they will only be able to
do it on weekends. I think we will

see a real trend downward, a posi-
tive trend.

SOME PEOPLE believe that today’s teens
don't have a very bright future, Rising
unemployment and the destruction of the
world’s natural resources will leave nothing
for the next generation. What do you
think?) Are you optimistic about your
future.
