What should families know about teen vaping, and how can you tell the difference between a harmless gadget and a hidden vape? In this episode of HCPS Wellness Talks, mental health counselors (and fellow parents of teens) Christine Spilman and Christina Norment break down the basics of vaping, from what e-cigarettes actually are to why fruity smells, “USB drives,” and even hoodie strings can sometimes be cause for a closer look. Christine also shares her expertise as a certified substance abuse counselor, explaining how nicotine, marijuana, and other substances can affect the developing teen brain.

Together, Christine and Christina talk through how teens are getting access to vapes, why vaping can open the door to other substance use, and what parents and caregivers can realistically do in response.

You’ll hear practical ideas for starting calm, age-appropriate conversations, helping teens connect the risks to their own goals and activities, and knowing when it’s time to “call in the village” by looping in your child’s school for support.
