Are you currently a smoker? If so have you tried educating them on the benefits of smoking vs vaping ?
WillyZee Vaping Master Verified Member ECF Veteran

Topacka Super Member ECF Veteran
Uhhh, sooo, they're destroying your stuff? Are you buying it with their money? Because if you're not, they have no authority over your property. Stand up for yourself and accept the consequences.
ScottP Vaping Master Verified Member ECF Veteran
Tell them they have to replace everything they broke or you will take them to small claims court. At 19 you are an adult and things you buy are your personal property. It may be their house but they cannot destroy anther adults personal property.

Sounds to me like they don't want you smoking anything, You haven't said that your a smoker trying to switch over or anything so Im taking a shot in the forest by saying your not a smoker and it sounds like your parents don't condone anything of the sort, whether it be vape /smoke or whatever you call it.

Unfortunately, regardless of your relationship to the person living under your roof, you have a legal obligation to prevent homelessness and cannot forcibly remove residence at the drop of a hat.
Elizabeth Baldwin Vaping Master Verified Member ECF Veteran
Omg some of these people! If my child is living under my roof they will abide by my rules, so those saying sue, you are telling this young man to be disobedient to his parents! No wonder the world is screwed up! I have 2 kids in college and 1 at home, thank God I raised respectful kids.
