Please,help!!!My DAD smokes a lot,he promised me at the begining of the new year (2008)that he will stop smoking but he didn-t,he can-t stop smoking
Please,help!!!
THANKYOU!!!
Like this you-re saving my DAD-S life!!!!!!!!I cant believe your making him smoke in the first place!Search for photographs of lung cancer patients related to smoking on the Internet and show it to him. That-s what scared the *@#* out of me that made me quit at once.ur dad will not quit till he is ready it is an addiction he has to faceYou can-t. It-s up to him to stop.Tell him that you want him to be around to see you growing up and that when he smokes you are afraid that he might not live to do thatyou wont get him to stop until he is ready himself tell him you want him to see your children when you are older and be at your wedding if that does not get the reaction you want try scare tactics and ask if you can try one(but don-t really) but don-t keep going on about it he is a man and we are stubborn creatures we will do some thing when we want to not because other people want us to so you need to make him think its his idea hope this helpsI have stopped my smoking. If you want to know more ow, e-mail me pls.Tell him that your worried, and you really need him to stop smoking!
Maybe he will listen to your pleas.First of all your Dad has to want to give up smoking, maybe you could get him some brochures on things like nicotine patches and stuff so he can see that he can do it with lots of help and support, this isn-t an easy task to make someone give up.
Good Luck!!!when i was about 14 , my dad used to smoke a lot.
i asked him to stop it but he always deny.
so i said him that i want to try to smoke and as it is so nice for him that may by nice for me too.
he was afraid that i could start smoking and ......
he stop smoking!!!!!!!!
he he!!!Hello! Ask him, if he cares for you, he should stop. Tell him that it is starting to effect your throat..and he should worry not to make YOU sick. Say that you would love to hang around lots with him, and if he smokes while you are out..you can-t hand out with him because it is effecting you and it is making you very sad!
All the bestHey i know its hard watching him shortening his life but you have to stay strong. I know how you feel because my dad smokes too. Imformation from others that dont know how hard it is to stop smoking wont help. I talk about him smoking all the time to his face so that he knows that i care about him. My father had a heart attack just last year and it was because of his smoking. Do some research and be aware of what smokings all about. I know its hard to be strong but thats what you need. If you cant take it any more tell a friend and you never know what a good friend can do, i told me best friend and it made me feel great and dont keep your feeling in yourself forever let it out. Second-hand smoking is way more dangerous than first-hand smoking so if you want him to stop follow him where ever he smokes. You have to put your life ahead of his if he really cares about you. When he doesnt look grab all that smoke and lighter and hide it! It works because once he notices how much he spends on smoking he-ll try to stop smoking. Don-t let him stop smoking by himself so what you have to do is help him stop. I-m 11 years old but I can give helpful advice. Just last night my dad was caught smoking and he tells us he has already stoped but my family really cares about him so what you have to do is say -What will happen when you die? Will I go to collage? Will I have to move to another house or with a family member? What will happen?.-
I really hope this will help!
Christina P, 11, Manfield TXQuiting from smoking takes lots of effort.Iam sure your dad love you - respect you a lot since he made a promiss to you.Support him mentally.Help him build up his mind.You can also go for a counsellor.Constatly tell him -u can do it,I know- I love you my pa.-I will pray for your dads good Health.Your Dad can-t stop smoking on his own because he is addictive to nicotine.
He needs to get professional help to quit if he can-t do it himself.
Please get as much information for your Dad from the three references below. They can help you get your Dad to quit. Good luck.Make him busy in work all time, keep in touch with him, Suggest him to make a habit of eating foods, the food which he should always eats continously like Bubble gum.He has to want to quit first of all, otherwise it will just flop and he-ll fall into his old habits.
Nicotine patches.
Hypnotizing.
Going cold turkey.
Everyone has forms a certain routine when they smoke. In order to get him to stop, maybe help him make a new routine so that urge to smoke doesn-t come up as often.heyy first of all
you need to make sure he wants to stop
i know its sounds gay, but really, you cant force someone
out of this habit. and the more you try.. the less he will want to.
righty, after that
you can try lots of ways...
cold turkey (i dont recommend)
gum,
patches.
and all the commercial ways etc.
but some other ways my family has tried that have worked are
using mints and lollies instead of gum
they aparrently taste the same and keep your mind off
wanting a smoke.
or you can try chupa chups. they help because its something else in your mouth .. just this time its not toxic and cant kill you.
:) good luckYou are such a sweetie! First, please know thata only when he wants to quit will he really do so. There is nothing at all you can do, honey.
Doctors can prescribe -the patch- to help when he REALLY wants to quit.
Good luck, you darling daughter!
