How do I get my parents to stop smoking?

They’ve both been smoking for a while (about 16 years) and I’m quite suprised neither one of them has any kinds of cancer or serious illness yet.

Not only am I worried about their health,
I’m worried I’ll receive too much secondhand smoke and get a disease or something. and nobody wants a disease.

They’ve tried E-Cigarettes, nicotine patches, and other things a few times, with no success.

What do I do?

Wait, why don’t e-cigarettes work?

Doesn’t that basically just release nicotine, the only thing they would be addicted to?

Do they care what you think

If not, there is no point in doing anything

Slit their throats as an offering to the god of smoking

Burn their cigarettes.
Or let your parents burn them.

Go cold turkey.

Take thier cigarettes, say “bitch don’t god damn smoke”
THEN THROW THEM ON THE GRRROUUUND!!!

Run away.

How would E-Cigarettes not work? Do they like the taste of tar or something?

Keep purposely putting yourself in front of their smoke’s smoke path so they worry about you and stop cold turkey.

Buy a mask and use that to filter out the smoke. Your parents don’t seem like the kind of folk with much self-discipline, so you’re screwed in that sense.

They apparently have to have the real thing.
They din’t like the taste of E-Cigs much.

My parents have the same problem, and I can’t get them to stop either.

Every pack of cigarettes you find you flush them down the toilet.

Why don’t you leave your parrents alone and mind your own business.

start smoking and die from lung cancer.

That will teach them.

Kill Obama

Start smoking with them so they can see how detrimental there smoking is too you.

I’d suggest sitting down with them, and just being honest with them.
Tell them how much you care about them, and that seeing them hurt themselves by smoking is something you can not tolerate anymore. Also mention how you worry that their lack of control with the cigarettes causes you to worry that you may be hurt by their smoking, and that they need to be responsible for themselves, and how they affect themselves, their loved ones, and themselves by smoking.

What I did to make both of them stop was to cough alot near them when they smoke, act like the smoke bothers you a lot, ask them nicely to quit and say it’s bothering you. Whenever a quit smoking commercial comes on, turn the volume up annoyingly, little stuff like that. It worked…but now I’m smoking, so I guess I’m a huge hypocrite now.

Bet them that you won’t get 1 million likes on facebook.

Both of mine have been smoking for 30+ years and I don’t give a fuck

I’ve been smoking for 6, nigga.

I smoke cigarettes made by the KKK, it’s probably the best I’ve ever smoked. Costs $11 a pack, though.

Stab them both. The best way to quit a habit is to be unable to do it.

eat their cigarettes
then they’ll get concerned about your health
and if they care about you, they’ll stop

Stuff anthrax in their cigarettes.
