How can i stop someone from smoking? -
my mom smokes and im worried for her. i tried to talk about it but it doesn-t help. i want to buy medicines but i don-t have the money because i-m still in high school and i don-t know where to find medicines especially i-m not independent. please give me ways or things i could feed her just to stop smoking.Take her to visit the lung cancer patients in hostpital !You can-t. She- made Her Choices, - takes Her Chances... ALL You can -Do...-- is keep reminding her that you love her, - that you hope she -lives- to see her Grandchildren... Maybe one day she-ll take the -hint...- Good luck...whe she buys a pack break them that will show her a message that you realy dont want her to smoke and she might stop but if she goes and buys another one break them again and again untill she stopsthis will owrk thats how i got my dad to stop smokingWhy is everyone being so insensitive? I am i the exact position you are and and i can-t just TAKE her to see a cancer patient... she has tried to quit, but not hard enough. You other people don-t understand how painful this situation is and if you have experienced it too then at least try to be empathetic.Unfortunately it-s really up to your mother...if she wants to quit she will,but will need help in doing so.As others here have said ...take her to see a cancer patient...that might just give her the will to quit smoking,but it also may have the opposite effect ( you never know until you try)Take you mother to visit someone who has emphysema and to watch how they live their day. My father had emphysema for 20 years from smoking. It-s a rough way to live and die.
And please tell your mom how you hope she quits because you don-t want her to leave you, but to be with you for a long time coz you love her so.
Best of luck.Adults that smoke are fully aware of the dangers and risks to their health. Showing them pictures of diseased lungs or making them visit a cancer ward in a hospital is a complete waste of everyone-s time.
People smoke because they are adults and have made the choice to. No amount of nagging will help unless someone really WANTS to quit. However, it is very kind and loving of you to want this for your mother.
