Smoking can actually kill you. It is hazardous to your health and can damage your lung and heart. In addition, it is the most common cause of cancer. However, smokers didn’t think about the negative effects of smoking. It didn’t come to their mind that smoking can lead to a serious health threat.

Well obviously your careless living by smoking will not only affect you, but also your friends and even worse, your family members. Do you want people you love to suffer just because of your careless or should I say stupid mistakes?
Children nowadays are being exposed to smoke. They feel that it is easy to communicate with the adult world by smoking. For example, your little brother is hanging out with his adult friend at the park and they’re having this conversation. . .
The adult friend: Hey bro! Why don’t you smoke with us?
Your little brother: I don’t smoke.
The adult friend: Whaaaatttt?!!! Smoking is good laahhh. You’re not cool lahh if you don’t smoke!
What do you think your little brother will say and do? His perception will probably change in any second right? In spite of this situation, children are weak because of the mistaken idea from the adult that smoking is a safe alternative to do. This leads to miscommunication. They didn’t even know that in reality, smoking cigarettes can greatly damage their health by deliver a large, addictive dose of nicotine. Children also want to try something that beyond their expectations by smoking just to be free from limitations and stereotypes.
So basically, we can conclude that the adult are the one who influence the children’s smoking behavior. They feel pressure not only from their friends, but also from their family who are smoking. In fact, parents should play the important role rather than to smoke in front of their children. If they do not take any serious precautions, their children may have the wrong interpretations about smoking in their life.
