Update: In January 2017, Indiana state legislature passed a law that highly regulates the packaging of liquid nicotine, the material that is smoked in electronic cigarettes. It specifically mandates that liquid nicotine is sold in child-resistant packaging. Great news for our children's safety! Also, FYI, one must be 18 years old to purchase electronic cigarettes or liquid nicotine in Indiana.
