Abstract
The prevalence of e-cigarette use among young people has become a growing concern, prompting the question of who is responsible for the promotion and marketing of these products to the vulnerable demographic: children and adolescents. The man behind the scenes in this scenario often is complicated. As we continue to navigate through the complexities surrounding e-cigarettes and youth consumption, it is essential that policymakers, public health officials, and parents work together to address this issue and prevent further harm to our future generations.
