We've just had a phonecall with the adoption agency, everything was going really well, even got through how we'd work it around my husband working abroad sometimes (I've previously posted about that), all sounded really positive, then they asked if we smoked. No, we don't. Do you vape? Yes, my husband vapes. We hadn't even thought it'd be an issue, but apparently since April it's been a rule that they want anyone who vapes to have quit for 12 months before being accepted for training! he doesn't vape nicotine or anything, so quitting isn't an issue, but it's set us back a whole year all the same. Their information pack said nothing about vaping, only that they like you to have stopped smoking for a year before applying so we thought nothing of admitting that he vaped. So frustrating. She said it was because they don't know the long term effects of vaping yet, which is fair enough. Not much point to my post I'm afraid, just venting.
