Why do many young people start smoking at all?
The most common age to start smoking is between 13 and 18. Since young people are more influenced by advertising and peer pressure, as well as more inclined to experimenting with new sensations, they often tend to try tobacco early in life and eventually “get hooked” on nicotine. Tobacco industry exploits psychological vulnerabilities of young people by portraying smoking cigarettes as a cool, glamorous, and prestigious adult habit.
