When reflecting about other behaviors that I have noticed away from home, the first one that comes to mind is the fact that in Germany, I saw a lot of teens smoking. There were a lot of things that seemed less strict in comparison to life in the US, such as swearing, drinking, and PDA, but this one seemed especially off because it's proven to be a huge health risk.
I thought it was interesting that perhaps the giant health push that went on in the US did not occur in Germany. Knowing that opinions differ based on cultural background, I understand that smoking as a teen is probably not seen as significant of a risk.
