How can i stop my parents from smoking?

stop smoking
Narutarded Genius asked:


Everyday they smoke and everytime they do, i tell them to quit. But they just ignore me or push me aside and say something along the lines of ‘dont worry, just leave me alone and i’ll quit’ BUT THEY SAID THAT YEARS AGO!

They cant stop smoking and after tons of learning about cigarettes in health class, im always scared! Im not the type of person to tell my parents that i cry at night about it (i dont) and stuff.

Thier too addicted, it kills thier lungs and thier wallets.

How can i stop them? One time i tried telling them to stop smoking but they just yell at me and send me to my room or something. Its bugging me ALOT.
They usually go out for a smoke whenever they can (commercial breaks) but they have a habit of ging after they eat.

My parents started smoking when they were really young (14 etc) and now thier 30 ish.
but… its hurting me so bad… i cant stand it

How to make someone stop smoking when they have cancer?

stop smoking
My friend went to the doctor recently, and they found traces of cancer in his blood. However, he doesn’t want to stop smoking. Talking to him won’t help because he’s given up on life. He hasn’t told his parents yet, and making him feel guilty doesn’t work. How do I stop him?

How to convince my mom she needs to stop smoking?

stop smoking
animalessence asked:


My mom has smoked cigarettes for a very long time, and I cannot convince her to stop. I’ve tried giving her facts and statistics about smoking problems and diseases and how she is endangering me, and whenever I try to talk to her about it she says, “Don’t worry about it.” And then if I try to lead on the conversation more, she will yell at me. The only other thing she answered me with is, “It’s too hard to quit.” But she has never tried to quit before. I am sick of breathing smoke all the time, I’m sick of not being able to have friends over because they get headaches when they are at my house (many have told me), and I am sick of sitting here watching my mother suck on cancer sticks just wasting her life away, and endangering me and everyone else. She refuses to just smoke outside, and air purifiers are not an option. (They are too expensive) We are also not doing so good financially and she ignores the fact that that’s where all the money goes. Please help me.
Thanks for all the answers already, and I have given her facts and such but she just pushes me away and will not listen to me at all. I have ended up in tears trying to convince her but she cares about her cigarettes more. All I ask is for her to try and she isn’t at all. She didn’t stop when she was pregnant with me or my brother, and she almost lost me because I was born prematurely, but she still didn’t try.
