Do you have advice for a 13-year-old who smokes?

I am 13 and smoking any advice?

Answer #1

Wise to stop now:

Most teens think they’re just experimenting – but the “experiment” often lasts for decades. As the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids reports, almost 90 percent of adult smokers started before they were 18. Teenagers tend to underestimate how addictive smoking really is: In one survey, only 5 percent of teen smokers said they expected to be smoking in five years, but eight years later, 75 percent were still smoking, according to Drug Topics journal. “Nicotine addiction is really a pediatric disease,” says Ron Todd, MSEd, director of tobacco control for the American Cancer Society.

i think you should try to stop.. we all smoke at the middle school, and yeah it’s fun and gets you popular with the other smokers, but you get worse at sports, and it gets harder to breathe. Believe me i started in 6th grade and now i really wish i stoped. stop stop stop STOP SMOKING!!!

No she is not stupid.. Lots of people experiment and people are just generally curious. Calling one “stupid” is not going to help anyone. And smoking doesn’t necesarily lead to more hamful drugs.

But.. yes it would be wise to stop. There are too many down - sides to it. I know it’s really hard. Just cut down less and less gradually.

Im think I’m trying to stop as my new years resolution =P
