RE: What do you say to a teenager caught smoking?

in #smoking4 years ago

All you really can do is try to show what a bad idea that it is in the long run, money, looks, health and hope that she is smart enough to make good choices.

Yes I think so. Her mum will likely take a harder approach, but that is where she lives so I think that's expected. I mentioned the shitty lungs being no good for swimming, and how much they cost - she didn't know as was given it by a mate who had got older mates to buy them.

I'm fairly laid back, and do remind her that she can talk to me about whatever, it hasn't really happened much so far though.

Teachers used to join us behind the church for a few sneaky fags back in the day...

Quality. I don't remember seeing any teachers smoking, although we knew which ones did. Times have changed - they'd be sacked for that these days?!
