Children smoking

There are several issues that result from this issue of children smoking.  Parents that smoke are WAY more likely to have children that smoke....and these parents are much more likely to justify their children smoking  as a result of guilt or understanding the addiction. ugh.

So first of all if you smoke and are a parent you might want to find a good support person to help you quit.  ( I can help with that...saveasmoker.blogspot.com)

Remember role modeling is the greatest teacher, but parents can also provide children with tons of information available about the affects of smoking.  Lastly parents can NOT allow their children to smoke in their home, car, personal space etc.  which basically says to their children I cannot be part of this self destructive nature!
Parents definitely need to NOT pay for the cigarettes.

Parents need to make smoking inconvenient or impossible for their children.  They need to teach their children regardless of whether or not they smoke that they will not approve of smoking!
