i understand how u feel my mom is the same way as yours, but my mom smokes around me and refuses to not smoke around me. so she is not only endangering her life, but mine also. so i have to suffer from the effects and smell like cigarettes and all that fun stuff. so i guess ur kinda lucky compared to me, but i hope u get ur mom to stop.

thanks curius333..your mom smokes around you?..that is really not good. i have heard that 2nd hand smoke can do as much damage as 1st hand maybe even worst..you seriously have to talk to her about it print something out that tells about the effects of 2nd hand smoke. lemme know how it goes if you talk to her. good luck!

Have her read this forum! I am 47, my post is down a bit, under how to stop smoking. Maybe if she hears it from someone who did smoke it would help. Like an alcholic, support from others that are one is best, hearing the same stories does help. Something will "hit" her to make the stop, my scare with health issues did it for me. Good luck to your mom! :angel:
