OMG!!!!!!! that is SOOO bad. im a year older than u, and nobody I know smokes!!! if your friends smoke, and you tell them not to, then that is not being nice AT ALL. do they smoke around you? if they do and it is really making you uncomfortable, then tell them that and if they don't listen then find some other good people to hang out with. "friends" who don't listen to you aren't true friends at all. They KNOW the dangers of smoking, on top of that you told them too, and they still don't listen??? that's some crappy attitude they have. so, just make some new friends who listen to you and don't smoke either. good luck!! :D :) ;) |

smoking is not good at any age.cigarettes contain nicotine and has over 1000 "other"cancer causing agents, so kid stay away from cigarettes if thats the smoke you talking about trust me it makes your breath stink makes you clothes stink and it cost you money in the long run |

If they try to make you smoke and you do not want to then maybe they are not your good friends. Find different people to hang around with. |

Just don't start yourself. I'm twenty five and I haven't seen, talked to, or even thought about the kids that got me smoking in high school in almost 8 years. |

well if they don't listen then thats their problem.the only reasons that u r caring about them is because their ur friends but if they don't listen to u thats not ur problem. at least u don't smoke. and don't try to if they tell u to. peer pressure is in effect with a lot of people now. |

for as long as you're not doing it.. that should be ok.. they are responsible for their own health you've done you're part..let them do theirs.. just make sure to stay away from them when they are smoking cause that can be bad for you too. |

Why don't you talk to your school guidance counselor, about the possibility of bringing it a "stop/don't start smoking" education unit. One of the means of reducing smoking, is targeted effective education. If it's SOME of your friends, rather than ONE of your friends, then it sounds like this could be a good program for your school.
Education about the effects of smoking, is one of the primary means of reducing smoking.
I think that if the expense is an issue, you (or your school or parents or a group of your kids who don't smoke) may be able to get a grant, or do a fundraiser for the expense.
In general, telling someone to stop is not very helpful, because no one likes to be told what to do. But educating them about the effects of smoking (lung cancer, blackened lungs, years to recover from it that state, disgusting progression of the disease, stinky smells coming off your body, people not wanting to kiss you - hey you're getting to that age if not already at it...), without telling them to stop sometimes helps people make up their own mind.
Another really effective means is to make sure that smoking is viewed as "uncool". This has a huge effect. In my high school we had very few smokers because it was uncool in my school. |

i think you should tell them the bad things about smoking, or tell an adult. |
