Bug him about it until he quits. remind him again and again how bad it is for him. be specific when you tell him what it does to his health.Thats what I did and it worked, he has never smoked since. Although I was seventeen. 9 years now. I also complained about how the second hand smoke gave me head aches. Good luck on that.I know how you feel.
I was like, seven when I made my mom quit.
I-m now twelve.
Basically, you have to tell them that it-s affecting you too!
It-s affecting your pets, you, your family, and even your dad.
I know this sounds bad.. but you-re going to have to make him feel guilty.My grandfather died of smoking ( i-m 13 too) but I really want to help people stop the bad stuff that they are doing, like smoking. Tell him facts about why it-s bad and give him good reasons to stop smoking! Key points on why not to are: money that you r spending on cigarettes, tell him exactly what-s in the cigarettes, how bad it can hurt his body, and that he could hurt you too by second hand smoke!!
Here is some websites that have good info on smoking:

I really really hope that you can get him to stop smoking because it can hurt you and him.tell him its hurting your health too?
that if he really cares about you that hell stop
i honestly dont know, my moms been smoking my whole life and im 16while he is smoking a cirgrate put it in a GLASS of WATER - MAKE HIM SIT DOWN A WATCH WHAT HAPPENS FOR A WHILE IT IS SCARY - MADE MY DAD QUITI am 13 to!!! I hid my moms cigarettes,and i told her all the medical facts i learned in school!There-s nothing wrong with telling him you don-t want him to die. You never know it might work, chances are that it won-t though. When I was 12-13 I told my dad to stop chewing ( He-s currently chewed for 30 years ) I told him I thought he would die and really wanted him to stop. He made a valiant effort but it just didn-t happen.
The reason being is that as much as my parent-s love me and as much as yours love you, smoking and chewing is an addiction, plain and simple. I plan to quit smoking when I have kids so they don-t have these images running through their heads, but I know it-s going to be one tough road.
Quitting has to do with your dad wanting to quit, not you wanting your dad to quit. I think If you let him know how you feel he will go in the right direction, but there-s no sure fire way you can really get him to quit. Good luck!Okay, so just tell him how it makes you feel. Hide his cigs and stuff. There really just isn-t a way to make him just STOP-
But I think that you-re younger than 13 becasue on your Q!A profile thing, you said you didn-t even know how babies were made? Wow. So if you are jsut a troll at least put your Q!A on private.You can tell him your concerns but that doesn-t mean that he will want to quit. You can-t force him to want to quit. If you believe that it is okay to manipulate people, you can try the guilt trips and stuff like that.
I told my dad that I was worried about him smoking but he hasn-t quit smoking. I doubt that he ever will. He-s now 77 and has smoked for almost 60 years. He-s still in good health so he really doesn-t care about the health risks (the average lifespan is only 78 anyway). But if he ever decides that he wants to quit, he knows that there will be many of us here to support him.My dad smokes too; tell him how you feel about it dude, it might shock him enough to want to quit.tell him what you said. you don-t want him to die. hearing that from a loved one triggers change.You can-t -make- him stop smoking. That has to come from him. Best you can do is support him if / when he does decide to quit.You need to explain to your Dad what is on your mind right now. If he loves you or cares about you he WILL listen. Quitting smoking can be easy or very hard depending on the person. Your Dad may need to take some smoking gum in order to get over his addiction.
Just be as sincere (serious) to him as you possibly can to show that this is no laughing matter. I-m sure he will pay attention to you then.I-d try to talk to him about it, explain to him that he-s important to you and that smoking is only slowly taking him away from you. Try talking to him...let him understandTalk to him about your future.
Tell him that how you will live if he won-t be good in future.talk to him and tell him and its hard because when ur addicted than ur addicted but tell him to buy some things to try them outIt is a long road..... firstly it is hard to stop if he has friends/family that smoke as well. My dad smoked until he married my mum(i wasnt born), then he quit, he restarted when they divorced, he quit with a friend of his but a lot of his friends smoke and this gave him the urge to smoke again. A good way is for example if he has a friend that smokes then try to get them both to quit it is easier with another person doing ti with you. Substitute the cigarettes with treats eg chocolate, chewing gum. This is how my dad quit with his friend.
Or... doctors have medication for people that have tried everything.it-s gonna be hard but if you can get him into one of quite smoking program , i think he will make progress.Nicorette-shide his cigs and talk to him
make him see how it effects you
by like crying and begging him to stoptell him just that. that you dont want him to die. simple really if he see how its affecting you im sure he-ll stop. cry infront of him and say you dont want him to die.jst tell him how you feel about him smoking, parents do understand.
hope i helped nd good luck.Ask for it as the only thing you want for Christmas. Tell him you want nothing else, from anyone, just for him to stop smoking.
