One of the main reasons for the increase in the number of smokers among students is the sale of tobacco products to minors. Many parents and teachers of the young do not talk enough with children that smoking is dangerous, or they give a bad example by smoking in front of them and encouraging their addiction to nicotine. More, there are not enough information campaigns for the prevention of smoking among young people.

It is important for teenagers to understand that smoking is not good and stylish, it causes serious health problems. It is linked to a number of diseases such as lung cancer, cardiac diseases and chronic lung diseases. Children who start smoking at an early age are more likely to develop these diseases later in life.

Therefore, actions should be taken to minimize this trend. This includes stricter laws against the sale of tobacco products to minors, educational campaigns that inform children about the harmful effect of smoking, and support for those who want to quit this negative habit.

To this end, the police in Burgas have initiated checks in shops that sell tobacco products. An information campaign is about to be launched among parents and teaching staff at schools to diminish smoking among students. The sale of tobacco products to minors and smoking by young people under 18 will be punishable by sanctions. It is planned to place signs on each school fence prohibiting the use of alcoholic beverages, any tobacco products, other smoking products and laughing gas by children.
