Should the age be raised to 21 to purchase cigarettes?

I believe we are fast forwarding our youth to failure as an adult. Teenagers more and more are encourage by society to mirror adults. From the b plan, std's, smoking, drugs, alcohol, D.U.I and the list goes on to destructive behavior advertise by society. It is a proven fact that teenagers involved in sports most likely stay away from negative activity. Unfortunately I have to agree with raising the age limit.. I grew up  in time where just like this for teenagers able to get anything most times for free. But it was the stiff parenting of my parents that stirred me in right direction when I get off the path. They were separated but together when it came to my well fare. Parents have to step up to call.. Or I can see the government raising your children on a unconscious level.. Everything is a marketing strategy to reach the subconscious to make you make decisions that in past would be unheard of.
