Some of my family smokes and there always like -oh im ganna quit someday- and they never do. And they get on the patches that suppose to make smoking bad but they rip it off. I really want them to stop smoking! But i just gave up cause i dont know any way to make them stop! Any ideas people? Or if you were a smoker, howd you quit? Thanks a million if you can answer and please give some good answers!thanks--
chadFind a way to show them that you really care about them and that-s why you want them quit, not because it-s a disgusting habit. For example, I told my nephews I would pay for half their gym membership, but I would pay for the whole thing for each month that they didn-t smoke. If you have a good relationship with your family, a little sibling torment won-t hurt. Start calling your brother -cancer boy- or -tobacco turd-. There has to be someone your family knows who died a horrible death from lung cancer. Remind them of that. Or, challenge your brother to a game of racquetball. When you kick his butt, say -gee whiz I bet if you quit smoking I wouldn-t kick your @$$ so badly next time-. Get creative. You-re fighting an uphill battle, but if you-re successful, they-ll thank you. Focus on positive reinforcement. Good luck.Quitting smoking is a personal choice. Nothing you can say will help.I got the same problem. I-m thinking of sending anonomous letters about how bad smoking is for them. Hopefully the letters will make them feel bad about smoking and the fact that it can force them to leave their loved ones sooner than they want to. Maybe that can help them quit. Just a suggestion.One night when they are all sleeping, find their cigarettes, or whatever they smoke, and hide it. Dont throw it out because if they get angry, like a violent angry, u can just give them back. But whatever u do deny that u know where they arecall a couple hospitals;ask to send out information. next time one takes you to a doctor,ask for help.taking smokes.they have to quit some day.take only one cig at a time from them.and save them.on week ends take two. every day try to get an extra one,here and there.at Christmas time........wrap them up and give them back.because you gave them three or more days of life.or keep asking them for a cigarette becouse 2nd hand smoking is killing you.look how many years you have had 2nd hand smoke.its hard i just started the pill for smoking.........good luck.Remind them yet again of the health risks, and how painful emphysema deaths are, and then tell them it upsets you because you dont want them to die early, and say -if not for yourself, then quit for me.-
If they smoke inside, make them smoke outside (say its for your sake). This will discourage them from smoking when it is cold outside.I agree with Brandon, quitting smoking is a personal choice..you can beg for them to quit and threaten that if they don-t you stop talking to them, throw away their cigarettes.etc, But honestly if they don-t want to quite smoking its just not going to happen. Sorry :(tell them what cigarittes are inResearch things that finds out what smoke has in it and read it to them. Tell them to stop and then get personal. gl!
p.s.- ur hotjust quit whining and start smoking.Secretly post those Truth ads all over the place where they can see them. That-s what I did to my mom, to the point where she was beginning to get annoyed I think. If you do take their cigs, go ahead and throw them away. They should be able to understand that the reason you want them to stop is because you care, and want them to be around for a while, not die of lung cancer at 35 years old.That-s a hard habit to kick. My mother is a smoker and has cancer...she has continued to smoke through out her radiation treatments. She also has other chronic health problems and will not quit. I think that it-s not that she doesn-t want to quit rather she can-t. Here-s how I got my friend to stop smoking while she was pregnant. I don-t allow smoking in my house, so my friend went outside on my balcony to have a cigarette while she was 4 months pregnant. While she was out there, I coached and sent my daughter ( who was 3 at the time) outside to ask her for a cigarette. Of course she told my daughter that she couldn-t have one. When my daughter asked her why. She told her because she was a little girl and too young to smoke. My daughter said, - Well, you let your baby smoke-. At that moment she put out the cigarette and didn-t smoke until after the baby was born.ya im gopinath in family my father and brother smoking and one day i think why dont we smoke then i took my brother cigrate and i smoke then all got tenns they came and beat and i ask if u smoking u r asking abt me wat ur thinking of me i ask then all went next day no one has smoke but the habbit got to me wat i will do i do no.
