How do i explain to my mum that i smoke?!


Question: How do i explain to my mum that i smoke!?
Right, so im 14 years old and a few months back i took up smoking, admitidly not a good choice, but hey people have made worse decisions!.
Im fed up now of hiding it from my mum, everytime i come in i have to rush upstairs and take a bath then put on clean clothes, and most of my friends have told their parents and they were suprisingly cool about them smoking but i can't see my mum being so 'cool'!. I think she would flip seen as i made her give up about 3 years back,
any help is gratefully recieved,
thanks :DWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Don't hurt your mum like that!. Keep it to yourself and reconsider continuing to smoke!. Not only is smoking incredibly bad for your health, it really impacts the friends/boyfriends/girlfriends you will have!. I lost out on many opportunities for dating great guys because I used to smoke!. Stand out from your friends and make a choice to NOT smoke!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Two choices

- quit on your own - this won't hurt your mum, but maybe you'll need the support so option two

- tell your mum that you made this mistake and that you want to quit!. You can talk to her about the best way to do this and if she has quit then you can find out how she did it/how she got through any cravings

Your mum might know anyway unless you are doing all your own laundry and she never goes in your room or the bathroom after you have changed!.

If some of your friends want to give up as well perhaps you can do it together (w or w/o telling your mum), otherwise you may face pressure from the smokers to smoke when you go out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There are very few poorer decisions that you can make!.

A lifetime of at the very least reduced health and vitality
and that's if you manage to avoid the most serious effects
like cancer, emphysema (a near certainty), and heart disease!.

You will have reduced social choices - lots of people won't
date smokers, you'll have to figure out more and more ways
to get your fix as restrictions are very rightly increased!.
Have you seen those poor folks huddled outside building
entrances on a cold, windy, rainy day puffing away to
satisfy their addiction !? You want to be one of them !?

And over the course of the years you'll have
thousands of dollars, pounds, or euros literally going
up in smoke!.

And your biggest worry is how to tell you mum !?
Go ahead, tell her!. Maybe she'll take it up again with you!Www@Answer-Health@Com

When I told my mum I started smoking she was relatively cool about it, mainly because she was a smoker herself!. I wish she'd made a fuss and caused a scene and grounded me for 6 months or something!. I'd be so much healthier if she had!. I'm 23 now and since then ten years have passed!. The number of health related problems I've developed are just insane!.

And worst of all i can't birng myself to quit!.

I'd suggest you work on quitting rather than telling your mum you took up the habit!. The longer you keep on smoking, the harder it become to kick the habit!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you have 2 choses: either you quit smoking( because its not good for a 14 year old kid to smoke!.!.!.doesn't matter if its cool or not ) or you tell you're mom and she will decide for you!.!.!.!.and i'm sure she will not be happy!.!.!.but its better to tell her you're self!.!.!.and if you don't have the courage to tell her than my advice STOP SMOKINGWww@Answer-Health@Com

Don't tell her - give up instead!. If you made her do it then why can't you do it yourself!. I've just given up (6 weeks ago) after smoking since i was 13 - 40odd years ago - because of health issues!. Give it a go with a bit of will power you'll do it, and just think of all the money you won't be wasting!Www@Answer-Health@Com

If I were your mom and you just tell me that I would smake you in your face!. How you $^%&^*are doing that!?!! No!.!.!.definitely I would not like if my son tell me that!. If you think your mom is not going to like that!.!.!.don't tell her!.
But your question is --How do you explain this to your mom!? face to face, and the reasons or how you started!.!.!.and if you want to quick-How do you can quick!. At first maybe she gets angry but them she wil want to help you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You "made" your mum give up smoking 3 years ago!.!.!.!.was it to help her health!? Because you didn't like breathing in her fumes!? That you didn't like the smell!? That the money spent on cigarettes is money wasted!?

Remember the reasons for wanting your mum to stop smoking, and apply them to yourself!. STOP!. SIMPLE AS THAT!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

if you really want to tell her just flat out tell her!. or maybe try writting it!?!? i know its easier when i write people letters when theres something hard i have to tell them, but be prepared for her to be upset, she will definately think you are too young, and she may be mad, but it will be better than her not knowing at all!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Just tell her the truth!.!.!.!.
I use to smoke at the age of 11 but don't now!.
Just say to your mom this:
'Mom it's my life,I know you care about me!.But it's time I make my own decisions!.'

Then again you shouldn't smoke,it's not the right road to go down at a very young age of life!.That's why i quitted!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Don't tell her!. Don't change your clothes tho either!. Let her find out on her own and if she asks you tell her the truth!. tell her you didn't want to upset her, but since she has asked, you don't want to lie!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think u should quite!. my mom was actually ok with it because I wasn't hidding from her anymore!. I told her the truth and she helped me out!. but this is of course she smoked when she was a kid!. dealing with issues by yourself is never easy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ask her to take you to get a tattoo then when she tells you how dumb you are you can say " You don't know the half of it", then just tell the truth!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Easy!.!.!.you sit her down and tell her that you have decided to commit suicide!. But instead of doing it all at once you are going to pay someone a ton of money to do it to you slowly over time!.

I'm sure she'll understand!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

excuse me!? you made HER give up!.!.!.and you START!? I suggest you grow up little girl and start walking your own talk!. Quit now, while it is relatively easy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

well uve made a bad choice of smoking but to me i fink u should give up smokiing and also u can write a letter to your mum and tell about it



GOOD LUCK !! :D
AND I HOPE EVERY THING GOES WELL !!! Www@Answer-Health@Com

Don't tell your mum, bad idea, what you do is get febreeze and breath mints!. Although if your mom still can't smell it, it sounds like she's smoking behind your backWww@Answer-Health@Com

let her find out on her own!. ive been smoking for three years and my parents havent found out/said anything!. and i cant believe you would start smoking after you made her quit!. :/Www@Answer-Health@Com

You don't!. You quit!. "people have made worse decisions!." There are not too many worse decisions that you could make at your age!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Fourteen year old ashtray mmmm attractive

You are way too young to smoke, why don't you just quit, and then you won't have to hide your smell from your mom!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

*it will kill you
*your teeth get fucked up
*the longer you smoke, the harder to quit
*your lungs get fucked up
*your heart gets fucked up
*your liver gets fucked up
*your nervous system gets fucked up
*you smell like ash ALL THE TIME
*much less likely to find a girlfriend, specially if she doesn't smoke
*did I mention, it will kill you!?

EVERY single smoker in this planet wants to stop!. Yet, most die trying!. I've been smoking since I was 14, I'm 22 now, that means I've been smoking 1/3 of my entire life!. I would give up ANYTHING to stop!.

and trust me!. if you don't stop now!. you WILL be like me whether you want it or not!.

stop smoking, stop smoking, stop smoking!. I can't say it enough dude is the WORST thing you can do to yourself!. I hope you ****ing listen for chrsit's sake!
