How do I get my parents to stop smoking?

My parents have been smoking for years. I have asthma and I have a 3 year old little brother. My parents try not to smoke around us and used to smoke out of our chimney in the winter. But now we just moved into a new house, and there is no fireplace so they just smoke in the house. They Can’t afford to use those quit smoking programs and buying cigarettes 3 times a day doesn’t help. They are truly amazing people, but smoking isn’t really making a good influence on others esapecially my brother and I. How can I get them to stop smoking?

Any tips for quitting smoking?

admin — Tue, 25 May 2010 07:19:45 +0000

I’m a pack-a-day smoker, but it’s extremely expensive and my fiance has severe asthma so I really need to quit. I managed to cut my smoking down to about 5-6 cigarettes a day, but that in itself has been really hard. Does anyone have any tips or plans that will help me stop smoking? This is something I need to do for myself, my fiance, and my bank account.

Thanks!

How hard is it to quit smoking?

admin — Sun, 02 May 2010 19:12:16 +0000

I’m planning on quitting starting Aug 21st. My reason is so i can live longer for my child, plus he has asthma and i don’ t want the cigarette smoke in my clothes anymore when he breathes it in. Another reason is gas prices are so high now and between gas prices and buying cigarettes i spend at least -0 a month. This will be my first time ever doing this, i don’t even know how to quit or avoid the cravings. I really can’t afford the smoking cessation classes (don’t know if i spelled the word right lol) i just want to do it on my own. I already know that the nicotine gum won’t work because i already chew gum when i’m smoking a cigarette. Need advice please and thank you to all!
I have people that will support me, like my boyfriend (he wants me to quit also), co-workers, my mom said she’ll support me but she smokes too and i live with her, i know other family members will be willing to help me.
