I need advice to Stop Smoking!

[Sabu]

My mum and dad keep smoking,but they said they would stop.I told them that if they have to,they could have 1 cigerette if they get stressed.Now I start to think that they are taking advantige of what I said,and also,I think they are both having cigerettes behing my back.
Does anybody have some advice to help me,help them stop smoking? :(

PS Do you think that I should steal ALL the cigerretes I find around the house,and put them at the bottom of the bin?

[Butcher11]

Well, i smoke, and I'm in the process of quitting (or at leats tyring to start the process), and no, if you stole their cigarettes, they'd find out, and eventually they'd be mad at you.
Do you actually see them smoking? If worst comes to worst, i guess steal the cigarettes, but that's only if they won't stop at all.
*Also, try asking another family relative for help, to stop them smoking.

[Bradd-Aaron]

I tryied that and got moaned at

[Sabu]

You prove a point Butch :rolleyes:

I'm a bit scared about asking a relative,excluding that the only people who don't smoke are my Auntie,Uncle,Nan & Grandad.My sister was the person who got my mum back into the smoking habbit :@
I've got some thinking to do ;)

Thanks for the advice guys :)

By the way Butch,if they DO start smoking to much,do you think I should steal the cigerettes One by One,Two by Two or something?

[MYKE!]

Evil methods:

.Tell them u think u'v got lung cancer (prolly wont work :l)
.Threaten to start smoking if they dont stop
. Jump on their face

[Sabu]

errr MYKE,heres what I think of your suggestions:

-If I tell them I have lung cancer,they will take me into hospital,then find out I am lying PLUS it'll break they're hearts if they don't

-If I threaten them to stop smoking,they'll hurt me,ground me and most likely do something my whole FAMILY will regret!

-They'll ground me

There are loads of TV videos about what happens to smokers health, I suggest get some of them and make them watch it, they made my dad stop smoking.

[Escalabar]

I used to smoke and have given up almost competly now. I only have 1 when I am majorly stressed. Which is not very often.

My advice to you would be not to steal their cigerettes as it will make them want them more.
If you have enough money, get them some patches or gum.

Tell them how upset you are, use the "I dont want to loose my parents at an early age" phrase, show them how upset you are.

Try to stop them emotionally.

Good luck :)

Here are a couple ways I've thought of but never used cause none of my family smokes.

1 - If you find a pack take all the cigarettes out fill the pack with little rolls of paper that look like cigarettes. Draw NO-SMOKING signs on them first so when they pull it out they see the message.

2 - Take one of their cigarettes and wait for one of your parents to come in. PRETEND you do not see them and look like your about to light up. I dont know if this will get you in trouble or not but say your curious to know what can be so good that its got both of them hooked.

3 - Start coughing wildly a lot when you walk by them or are in the same room. Say you got called down to the office because you smelled like smoke

[ttranquility.]

No, you shouldnt you would get in bad trouble. 2'nd you should just NOT do anything about it. :) They will find out soon enough. So just Keep putting "patches" IF you really want to stop them from smokeing. But i wouldnt. :)

This may not sound the best of way's but i bet you it will workTry eating a full cigarette.

It will make you sick BADLY but from then on evry time they get the taste of them in there mout they will want to be sick
:8 :8 :8

[Sabu]

Erem also,should I take a packet of cigerettes.And hide them in the same room,but they're harder to see?

[Luayminator]

My dad has thing about smoking when he goes to a foreign country. So what I did, is umm I started coughing whenever he smoked and I used my cute sad face and stuff and talked so cutely and innocently about it, the emotional way, he stopped :o

Definately one by one, and whoever said the little rolls that said "No Smoking", they'll proabably think he's stealing them to smoke himself. :rolleyes:

[Concentric]

I think you should tell them how you honestly feel and encourage them to stop. Don't be agressive, but get "angry" with them if you see them smoking, tell them what you think about it and why they shouldn't. If they realise it's affecting you and your sister then they might think more seriously about it.

Put them in a safe place so if they think that you can show them. Besides they wouldnt think you're smoking them if you're so disgusted by it that you make little 'no smoking' signs

[Luayminator]

IDEA, Ding. Talk to them and explain to them how they are comitting suicide. :s

no. He shouldnt do that. Then his parents will get mad because he "stole"(they will asy you did) the smokes. Which will make it even worse for them. Because they will waste more money by going out to by another pack to replace the pack that you hid. Bad idea.

lol :p They are in away I like the word suicide. idk why :p

[la-ur-en]

The best advice i can give you is...
Talk to them, tell them that you are really concerned about there health and what it could do to them, just don't threaten them, don't act like a child, act mature and say it in a mature way, that way they will know you are not just being an 'silly little kid' as my mum used to call me :rolleyes:

Anyway, if that doesn't work, do what i done. Get all the ciggaretes, and then, put peper over the top of it, or some sort of burny or horrible tasting sauce or powder, and sprinkle it over the bit where they put there mouth, and if you can try putting it inside without ripping the ciggarete, that will teach them to smoke again...

If that doesn't work, tell them that unless they stop smoking, you are not going to sit in the same room as them, or the ciggarete packets, and if they walk in on you when you are watching tv and they are smoking, they have to get straight out, and if they don't you leave, they will get upset that there own child isn't talking to them, and will try and give up smoking!

Just wait for one of them to die and the other will learn for the others person mistake... =/

[ttranquility.]

:\ Thats not a good way to deal with it lmao :p

[Mr.Mity]

If i were you I would make them guilty about what they r doin... They know u want them too stop and show them that buy ignoring them/stealing their cigs/ or whatever else will get their attention and show them how u feel about them smoking :D

I hope i helped :D

[:-Mystical.Dave-]

Lol Brandon nice way to deal with the problem, only problem is that there DEAD!

[hellzfrost]

Ermmm...
How about every time you want a cigarrette - have chewing gum or a sweet - it works for meh Dad .

[Mentor]

why donyt you just make sure there are no cigratets in where evre you live, and make it as hard of yourslef to get hold of them

Then try to just outright stop. even if you cannot mange if you made it hard to get them, you may still not be able, to therefor forssing yourself to continue, until you can control your slef again.

Do you realy want to be controled by a few centimter stick of compleat and utter ****, wichs only real effect is to shorten your life span :/

[Ciaran]

if i were you id steal them all and check em away...
