Shocking moment a toddler puffs on a VAPE while strapped into its car seat as older child complains ‘you’re choking me with that!’
This is the shocking moment you can see a toddler puffing on a disposable vape cap while strapped into a car seat.
The video, which was originally posted on social media, drew massive condemnation, with one person calling it “child abuse.”
The footage begins by showing the young child taking two puffs of the vape before coughing and looking at who is filming.
You also hear an older child cough before he says, “You’re choking me with the fumes.”
Commenting on the video, someone said: ‘These people need to be locked up, child neglect of the highest order.’
Another added: “What kind of people subject a child to this and then show it to everyone?”

A third also said: ‘This is wrong on so many levels, it even makes me angry at this terrible parenting out there.’
Last month the government revealed that single-use vapes will be banned in a bid to protect children’s health and prevent them from becoming ‘addicted for life’.
The number of children using vaping has tripled in the past three years, thanks to disposable devices that come in a range of bright colors and tempting flavours.
Figures show that 9 percent of children between 11 and 15 years old now vape, while the long-term health consequences are still unknown.
Rishi Sunak is ready to introduce new legislation, using existing powers under the Environmental Protection Act.
The measure is expected to come into effect early next year, in the hope that it will stop the trend of vaping among children.
The Prime Minister said: ‘As any parent or teacher knows, one of the most worrying trends at the moment is the increase in vaping among children, which is why we must take action before it becomes endemic.
‘While vaping can be a useful tool to help smokers quit, marketing vapes to children is not acceptable.
“As prime minister, I have a duty to do what I believe is right for our country in the long term.”
