Make it catch on???
Hello, I'm looking for some kind of idiom for the situation where for example a student starts smoking in the school yard and by doing so, he indirectly tells his fellow students that smoking in school is not a big deal, in other words, he messes with the rule of "No smoking in school" ; I want to know if I can call that act (the idiom I'm trying to find) : " To make it catch on" ? , you know, because he's the one who "made smoking catch on" among the students. By the way if there's any grammatical problem with my text please let me know.
