let her smoke, and buy her cigars to smoke too.
Intervention with friends and family can sometimes convince a person to get help.
I’m afraid there’s nothing you can do. I watched my own mother die from it. Both my parents, actually, though my Dad lasted until he was 86 before he succumbed to COPD.
The good news is — a majoirty of smokers do *not* die from smoking, and most of those who do do so fairly late in life. The cancer risk is one in 18.
Good for you for showing concern. Thirty cigarettes a day is a lot and I understand that you’re scared. Quitting is really hard, and unless she really wants to, she really can’t. I’m sure she knows the dangers of smoking.
Children of parents who smoke are more likely to become smokers that children of parents who don’t. Tell your mother she’s setting a bad example for you and your siblings. I’m a mother and I can tell you that no mother wants to see her child become a smoker. Good luck.
bring her the electronic cigarette on her birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
when my mom was younger her mom smoked and she would always go and take her packs of cigarettes away and throw them in the garbage. it’s a gross habit that wastes money and kills you.
tell your mom it’s DEFINATELY your business what she does with a cigarette because you deserve a mom who will be around to watch you grow up, not one that falls ill due to smoking. tell her to get her priorities straight. you should not have to be put through all of that crap, plus it’s probably hurting your health too. =(
