Totally fair, your parents are just trying to prevent you from making a bad life long decision. I started smoking because my dad and sis did and I wanted to be cool I guess. Well the first time I was caught I got a spanking -- with a big leather belt. Call yourself lucky these days kids.

But I didn't learn and grew up to be a smoker and now I've finally quit but it is still a daily battle to not go buy a pack for $6 and give in!

And seriously -- how grounded are you? Playing on the computer eh! ;)

YES! If I was your parent, not only would I have grounded you, I may have even told the school and had you in detention at lunch as well as cutting you off from the outside world other than school. That includes ALL electronic devices and friends who tried to come over. If you snuck out or tried to use your phone or computer, I would double the time you were grounded. Smoking is incredibly stupid and has so many more down sides than upsides. It doesn't even get you high, so I don't understand why teenagers smoke in the first place.

My parents were smokers when they discovered I was smoking and at the time it seemed totally cool to me that the only thing ever said to me was that if I was going to smoke, then I was not to do it behind their backs.

Well, let me tell you what! I have three children of my own now and if I ever catch one of them smoking, they are going to regret the day they were born (a figure of speech)! Smoking is the worst thing I have ever done in my life and regret it each and every day.

Be smart! It's not cool. It stinks. Even though, you as a smoker, may not smell the smoke, you REALLY STINK to others. It's just plain stupid.

Yes, not only is it horribly unhealthy, but it is ILLEGAL for you to be smoking if you are a minor! You deserve to be grounded for breaking the law!
Report (0) (0) | earlier
Yes.

Yes first of all because smoking is bad for you.

Second because you took what didnt belong to you.

Third - you stole from your Grandma !!!

YES--so bad for u--and it is deceitful behavior to take something that isn't yours without asking anyway. don't start smoking whatever u do--it will kill u in the end in some way, shape, or form. also, it affects others around u by "secondhand" smoke--don't hurt the ones u care about!!!
