I’m 18F. Which is the legal age to buy vapes where I live. I’ve been vaping since I was younger tho. Which my family’s don’t like. My sister is 17. She doesn’t vape or drink.
So I was shocked when she came to me and asked me if I could buy her a vape. I asked her why I didn’t think she wanted to try vaping or drinking. She said all her friends vapes and she just wants to try it.
I have a spare vape that I don’t really use as much as my main one right now so I said she can have that if she wants.
I did say don’t do it if it’s simply to look cool or fit in tho. But she’s not even that much younger than me and if she really wanted to vape I’d rather her get it from me than steal it from me or get it from someone else who might’ve tampered with it. Or upsell her.
And I felt like I was being a supportive sister. And it’s not my job to parent my sister when she’s literally only a year younger than me. If she was younger than that I probably would’ve said no and told her not to start but a lot of teenagers experiment and I felt my job as a sister would be to help her do it safely.
Turned out it was a test by my parents and sister to see if I would agree or not. They got really annoyed at me for “encouraging” my sister to vape. And I’m annoyed at them for tricking me. Like I have never told her to vape. I’ve never encouraged anyone to vape. I don’t offer people it or anything unless I know they vape or they ask. Which in this case my sister asked so I said ok. I didn’t go up to her like “hey want a vape?”.
So I feel like it’s not my fault or responsibility. They said I should’ve told them and not agreed. As if im going to snitch on her. Even if I’d said no there is no way I would’ve snitched on her unless it was obviously something really concerning.
I’m honestly quite annoyed that my parents and sister would “test” me like that in the first place.
I feel like they’re really the assholes here.
Am I really the asshole?
