Answers:
You know your parents and their values, we don't!. If your parents are lifelong smokers, they are probably not going to be bothered by it as much as non-smokers or former smokers would!.
However, we all want better for our children!. I have smoked off and on - never been a habitual smoker, and it would break my heart to see my children smoke!. I know that probably sounds hypocritical, but I love my children and want the best for them!. They are grown now, and fortunately they think smoking is nasty!.
Smoking has always been one of those things teens want to try!. Not everyone does, of course, but I remember trying it as a teenager and hating it!. But you say at 13 you are already doing it when you can get it!. I just can't imagine that at 13!.
I have to say it is admirable that you are thinking about what your parents think rather than being more concerned about hiding it from them!. Don't try to hide smoking from your parents!. They can smell it no matter how hard you try to hide it!. A couple of years ago one of my daughter's 17 year old friends (who comes from a non-smoking home) came over one night, and I could smell it on her from across the room!. It really surprised me, and my daughter and I had a talk about it!.
Open, honest communication with your parents is the big issue here!. I have always told my children they will be in less trouble if they tell me things up front rather than letting me find out another way!. I hope this is just a phase you are going through, but here is something to think about!. If mom finds out you are smoking now and not waiting until you're 15, she may retract the age 15 offer!. It sounds like you have parents you can talk to, and I urge you to do that!.
I'm not sure what the laws are on underage smoking these days if your parents are aware of it, but that is something else to consider!. And please,, don't even think about drinking at your age!. You can make too many bad decisions when drinking!. My daughter lost a friend yesterday because his 20 year old friend was drinking and driving!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would never be OK with my kids smoking and/or drinking at the age of 13!
Hopefully you realize that your body and brain are still growing and developing, and that putting toxic substances into your body can have long-term bad effects!?
I know !.!.!. I know !.!.!. most kids DO experiment with tobacco, alcohol, and worse !.!.!. but your teenage years are NOT a good time to risk becoming addicted to a substance!. You are not mature enough at 13 to make wise decisions (sorry) and exposing yourself to tobacco, alcohol, and/or other drugs before you are really old enough to understand the consequences can set you up for a lifetime of substance abuse!.
Please just stay away from all that stuff until you are grown up and of legal age !.!.!. hopefully by then, you will have enough maturity to stay away from it altogether, or to at least make educated decisions about your consumption of addictive substances!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Don't smoke cigarettes if you can avoid it!.!.!.!.
They don't get you high, they cost a lot of money, they shorten your life, they make you a horrible athlete, they take up a lot of time to smoke and buy them, it is a major inconvenience to smoke them when you are some places, they are HIGHLY addictive, people who are hooked on them get to feeling shitty without them, you smell/look/taste unattractive, a lot of people don't want you smoking around them!.!.!. There are seriously no positives to smoke cigarettes!.
But to answer your question, if you break your parents in then drinking won't be so bad!. 13 is still really young!. By age 16 I could have broken my parents in by getting caught for public urination, graffiti, smoking pot (which is truly a MUCH better and more healthy choice than cigarettes or alochol)!. Then there perspective is changed!. When they don't look at you as an innocent little baby they don't care as much about it!. Though my parents still would freak out anytime they caught me, the freak just wouldn't be as bad anymore!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Your mom was going to let you try a cigarette at age 15, she will probly be dissappointed in you for starting to smoke two years earlier!. If I were you, I would completely quit smoking and drinking until you are at least 17!. I would say wait until you're 18 if you're going to take up smoking at all!.!. Beleive me, later you will regret smoking at such a young age!.!. it really isn't worth it!. 13 is definately not a good age to get into that kind of thing, and smoking really isn't a good habit at all!. When I was 13, I wasn't even thinking about any of that, too busy playing at the park and stuff!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Why are you trying to be such so nasty!? It is not impressive or cool smoke,drink or be hateful to your parents!. What kind of friends are you trying to attract, because you will be scraping the bottom of the barrel!.

It's not OK to drink nor smoke!. Period!. They both will kill you!. Besides, smoking makes you smell horrible, and drinking kills brain cells!. Be smart, don't smoke or drink, you'll never regret that the rest of your LIFE!. Drinking and smoking shortens it and makes you look older with wrinkles and baggy eyes!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
