Why don’t you try interviewing an actual, medical DOCTOR. I guarantee you the results will be different. This guy here is technically a “Dr” but a quick google search reveals he is a PhD, and really a public health statistician. I actually have an MD friend I could put you in touch with who does public outreach about…

Seriously, you need help. You are making yourself look incredibly foolish.

I’d be happy if she just worked on getting free of writing about them.

Imagine *this* being the hill you choose to die on.

Esther, man,

This is the hill that you take your stand?

Right? And what does “excellent student” even mean? I’m sure there are numerous kids who score in the top 2% on their standardized tests and have 4.0 gpas who will not be admitted. These kids are getting in because of the name of their prep school and the donations made by their parents. Meritocracy my ass.

“And the article also states that Shaw’s kids, who were privately educated at an “elite prep school” and also had access to tutors, probably didn’t even need the help, as they were “by all accounts excellent students.”

Oh fer chrissake. Is Wendy a fucking osteopath? Christie is 65, and so are her bones. She could be half that age and still snap like a twig if she fell the right way.

Vaping is bad just like cigarettes. You just don’t want hear about it because you vape and you want to pretend nothing is wrong. Stick your fingers in your ears and go la la la. That will help.

Supporting the side hustle of evil tobacco companies is, like, so cool. Keep on vaping and fucking up your blood pressure and heart, kids! /s

You didn’t quit smoking. You quit smoking cigarettes and traded it for smoking a stupid Juul. Vaping is unhealthy, killing people, and hooking children to something dangerous. This article is irresponsible and asinine.

I can’t help but sit back and laugh at both sides of the vape debate. On one hand, you have the hip, #FinishIT refugees who found themselves addicted to an even douchier version of the thing they spent their childhood just saying no to. On the other, you’ve got the political moral panic desperate for anything to turn…

“I have been Juuling for years . . . Common sense would dictate that if vaping were so dangerous that we all need to stop vaping immediately, that people would have fallen sick before this summer.”

That’s an impressive whine. Did mom send you to your room for vaping?
