7 year olds trying 2 smoke?

Question

My neighbor is 7years old. she hangs out with all the older kids(13,14 and 15 year olds) and acts alot older then she is. they all smoke and now shes trying it she cnt do it right and ends up coughing and almost throwing up. but wont stop. should i tell her mom even tho shes nto doing it rite

Answer 1

yes

Answer 2

I would never tell a parent anything about their child, because I have had bad experiances with kids lying to their parent about what I said and then I felt foolish because the parent believed the child. I have also been straight out called a liar because "my child wouldn't do that"  So how do you know about this? Did you see her? Could you very easily set it up for MOM to see it?  If you are only going by what another kid or neighbor has said to you then MYOB, cuz it may not be the whole story

Answer 3

I would do something.  It ias not only bad for her health but also bad for her reputation.

Answer 4

You may feel like its nothing and can't do it right

but might as well stop before she gets it right

she has a chance to get it right.

stop it now.

she can regret everything if shes got it down

Answer 5

yes you should, shes way to young... now if she was 13 or something then you should handle it in a diffrent way (even though I have no problem with smokers at 15 or 14)

Answer 6

yes, tell the mom.  I just hope if someone saw my 7 year old smoking they would tell me.

Answer 7

yes should kids imatate what they see so i would tell good luck

Answer 8

I would tell her mom ASAP!!  She should not be smoking, as well as the 13, 14, and 15 year olds!

Answer 9

Obviosly YES. SHE SHOULD GET WHAT SHE DESERVES. AN *** WHIPPING. Cigarettes kill over time. Tell her mother and find out who those older kids are. Srry bout the language but it's true. She deserves a better life than if she was a smoker. Tell her mom and tell her to explain the dangers of it.

Answer 10

Tell her mom ASAP so she can talk to her about the dangers of smoking. She may not have even had the cigarette talk with her yet, so now is great time to teach her about lung cancer and heart disease and all the gross stuff that smoking does to your body.

Answer 11

yes obviously you should. it doesnt matter if she does it right the point is she is trying to do it.

Answer 12

yup....mom needs to know!

Make sure you tell the mom ASAP!

Answer 13

Normally I would say to mind your own business, but in this case I think it would be okay to tell the mom. I would think that she will get better at it soon and will become a regular smoker. If she is coughing, she isn't blowing on the cigarettes - she is at least taking puffs and trying to inhale them. It doesn't take many puffs to get good at it, even at 7.

Answer 14

Yes, you should tell her mom. But, judging from your post, I doubt it will do any good.

Answer 15

either way, she tried. tell her mom asap.

Answer 16

yeah, help her out, you know smoking  its a real bad habit

and besides it gonna kill her in a few years if she doesnt stop

doing it.

and my god it still a child
