Vaping and Parenting: Tips for Vaping Parents

Nicotine vaping products are still considered unsafe in Australia.

Being a parent is a full-time job, and if you’re a parent who vapes, it can come with its own set of challenges. Balancing your lifestyle while keeping your home safe and healthy for your kids is important. So, if you vape, here's a casual chat about how to manage it in a responsible and kid-friendly way. Let’s dive in!

Keep Your Vaping Gear Out of Reach

First things first—your vaping devices and e-liquids should be treated just like any other adult-only items (think medications or cleaning products). Make sure they’re out of sight and out of reach of your little ones. We know how curious kids can be, so stashing your gear in a locked drawer or high shelf is a must. Vaping products often come in fruity or candy-like flavors, and while they might be delicious for you, they can seem tempting to your kids too—better to keep them safely stored!

Be a Role Model Without Normalizing It

As parents, we set examples, even when we don’t realize it. If your child sees you vaping, they might be curious or even want to try it when they’re older. It’s important to have an open conversation about what vaping is and why it’s something only for adults. Explain the responsibility that comes with it, without making it seem “cool” or appealing. Kids are smart—they’ll pick up on how you handle the situation.

Vape in Designated Spaces

Just like we create designated spaces for adult activities, it’s good practice to have a vaping area, preferably outside the house or away from where your kids hang out. Even though second-hand vapor isn’t the same as cigarette smoke, it’s still a good idea to keep it away from their space. Plus, this can give you a nice break to step outside and unwind, knowing you’re keeping your family’s environment clean and safe.

Teach Them the Difference

Let’s face it—vaping is everywhere. Whether they see it in public or hear about it at school, your kids will likely encounter vaping at some point. That’s why it’s important to explain the difference between smoking and vaping, as well as the reasons you choose to vape. Use simple language, and be clear about the fact that it's an adult choice and not something for them to try. Being transparent helps avoid confusion down the line.

Plan for the Future

As your kids get older, the conversation around vaping will change. Be prepared for more questions and opportunities to guide them toward making smart decisions. Educating them early on about the potential risks of nicotine and vaping is a great way to keep the dialogue open. If you’ve been vaping for a while, you might even use this time to consider alternatives or think about cutting down.

At the end of the day, being a vaping parent just means being a bit more mindful of your habits. Keeping things safe, setting the right example, and having honest conversations will go a long way in balancing your vaping lifestyle with your parenting duties.
