Unfortunately, they won't be successful at quitting until they really WANT and are READY to quit!. Unfortunately, they are very young, and this could be a phase!. People in their 30s, 40s, 50s, etc!. try to quit smoking over and over and over, but they always go back to it since its so addicting!. If an older and more mature person has trouble quitting I can only imagine how hard it'll be for someone so young who can't even make good decisions for themselves!. I'm positive they do it because its cool!. Next thing you know they're addicted!. Older people smoke because they are so addicted and they can't get through the day without it!. Stress, bills, family, job!.!.!. all of that drives addicted people to smoke!.
If you give it time, you'll end up smoking also due to peer pressure or curiosity!.
There is not much you can do, and if you did try to do something, it will almost always end the same way!. They will end up avoiding you and you'll lose their friendship!. So you can think of it this way:
Option 1: Don't do anything!. Hope that it's just a phase!. And they may eventually stop!. But it could take months, even many years!. Some of them will even get caught by parents, teachers, family members!. The bad side here is since they are your friends, people will think you smoke with them also!.
Option 2: Do something!. Talk to them, tell their parents, shoot them with a fire extinguisher!. Whatever you do here will cause them to resent you and hate you!. The bad thing here is you could lose a friend, or several!. At least you got them to stop or at least slow down and you don't have to be around it!.

Let them know you care but don't nag!. If you pick a place to go try to choose a place that does not allow smoking so they cannot smoke while around you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
