Regulations with addictions and without any kind of education and involvement in all the layers of a society becomes a facade. Here, despite minors being banned from buying legal drugs they start consuming them once they hit the double digits and peak during middle school and high school, because there are always stores that end up selling, parents who buy them, other relatives that buy on their instead and of course ID falsification. In fact, several brands aim products for children in more "harmless" formats with pictures and smaller, like smaller cigarettes (note that here they even banned chocolate cigarettes), vapers of many, many flavours, nicotine packs that look like chewing gum or candies, etc. Note that nicotine patches (advertised in shorts specially in a hellhole called Tiktok) contain the same amount as half pack or even a whole pack of cigarettes and people put them one on each gum.
