If he is around the smoke, then it would not be that much different to actually be smoking (especially if he is around multiple smokers). If you let him try it and he does not turn green, then what? Sure its bad, but so is everything else we do in life (young or old). If it were cigs I would think differently. Take him camping or do a father/son thing and give him one or let him try. I am a father of a 9 year old, so dont ask me what I would do!!! I tried smoking at an early age, well I would sneak it. At 14 I was full blown chewing and tried cigars. My Son hangs out at some of the lounges and has even had the oppertunity to roll a couple.
