If you suspect and find out that your adolescent kid or friend is smoking, here is how to help them.
Be a good example and stop smoking or glorifying the habit if you do. If you smoke right before your teen kid, it comes out as a lesson to them.You can ask for assistance from a doctor on how to go about it.
Don’t keep quiet about it. Speak about the issue and on the dangers of smoking. Apart from what the kid might be knowing on the dangers of smoking, add on the list of what you think might be other dangers.
Discourage e-cigars. Cigars such a sheesha are a modern way of smoking. While the promoters of the e-cigars are purporting to help quit smoking, the do harm just as normal cigars. The harmful effects of the cigars remain the same.
Help the teen make an escape plan from the behaviour. The plan will depend on the kid’s social orientation, hobbies and the general.
After you help the teen develop a plan t quit the habit, follow up to ensure complete abstinence.
