How To Help Teenagers To Stop Smoking

Smoking has now become commonplace. Starting from the adults, both men and women, until the teenagers have become a rogue. The biggest smokers are teenagers where the numbers at this age are very high in prevalence. There are several things that can help parents to stop smoking habits among teenagers. How to do? Here I'm Sharing here How to help teenagers stop smoking.

1. Be good role models
   Every child, whether consciously or unconsciously, will imitate the behavior, speech and attitude, and habits of the parents at home. Therefore, as parents do not introduce the habit of smoking. In a study said if in a family has a father who smokes, then most likely the child will become a smoker. Therefore, if the father still wants to smoke, should not be done at home, do not smoke in front of children and do not leave traces of smoking in any place, especially easily accessible by children.

1. Establish healthy communication with children
   Do not forbid children to smoke, without giving clear information-why, smoking is a bad thing and is forbidden. Through honest and open communication, the child will be more understanding, understand and not overcome by curiosity to try.
2. Give understanding from heart to heart and add intensity attention of parents
   For teenagers and newly grown children, smoking is considered a proof that a man is genuine. Clearly this is a false myth. Therefore, it would be better if parents ask the child why they want to smoke. Give understanding about the ill effects of smoking, the purpose of why he wants to do it. And keep the child's motivation to stop immediately, by paying more attention and establishing healthy communication. And give the most beautiful points that, he will be more cool and gentleman with no smoking.
3. Continue to cultivate the negative impacts and dangers of cigarettes
   Today's teenagers are often tempted to join friends to try smoking without knowing the danger or its effects on health. Therefore, it is good as parents tell, explain, continue to warn about the negative impacts and dangers of smoking. Among others, causing bad breath, causing unpleasant body odor on clothing and hair, making yellow teeth and nails, making skin wrinkles, causing coughs, lung cancer, disturbing people around him, air pollution, unpopular women , making pockets, wasteful, harming parents and as well as suicide.
4. Helping and supporting children to stop smoking immediately
   Based on research, nicotine addiction in adolescents can occur quite quickly. It only takes about one - two weeks to make teenagers feel addicted. As a wise parent, you can set and make arrangements with children by specifying a date where they should start quitting. Instead, do not coincide with the exam date or when they're stressed out. Do not forget to reward children when they are able to quit smoking, which makes them more motivated to stop completely.
