Default Need suggestions on smoking

Both my 11 and 13 year old grandsons steal cigarettes from wherever they can to smoke them sometimes even butts from outside of stores.
Their father is an idiot and their mother has mental issues, divorced of course and they both smoke.

He is remarried and never around to care and she is oblivious to most anything that they do.

If there was something that I could lace a couple of cigarettes with to make them so sick that they would be afraid to smoke ever again I would do it

This world is bad enough, they don't need to smoke also

I hate to say it, but it looks like they are going in a bad direction early. Not sure what to tell you, other than good luck. Parents need a boot in their asses.

A buddy of mine got caught at 11-12 and his old man made him smoke a gigantic cigar. He puked for hours and never lit up again

I won a bet by eating a whole can of Skoal. Never dipped again and just the smell now makes me want to vomit.

Sounds like smoking is just the tip of the iceberg. I would ask my grandfather to talk to them about the consequences of smoking but he died a horrific, painful death from oral cancer.

Everyone called him Booger.

I'd probably tell the kids you can get hepatitis or some shit doing that.

I started smoking at 12 and quit at 25. If they want to smoke nothing will stop them just like drinking and doing drugs. Hopefully they'll grow up.

Spend more time with them if you live close by.

The act of stealing the cigs is more concerning IMO.

Good luck, might as well send them to Portland so they can adjust to their future at an earlier age.
