about

My mission on Advicenators is to be honest. People lie when they answer because they want to be rated high, but I think people ask strangers on Advicenators things because they want an honest answer.
My alias is Farren, and I'm in 9th grade. I think I'm mature for my age, but that could just be self-dilusion. I believe that everyone is in some way self-dilusional. So yeah, ask me a question if you want.

Im 13/f and one of my best friends (12/f) tryed somking today with her two other friends who have somked sice they were 10.
I am really against smoking and when I talked to her about it, she said she was, and didn't tell me that she tried it or act like anything was weird. I know she told others, I saw her whispering. I know she did it because I was with a group of friends next to the bush where they smoke and I saw her smoking. She was coughing all the way through the next lesson and STANK.
This was in first break and she went off with the other two at lunch too, so she might of been smoking then too. I havn't told her that I know.---How do I stop her before she gets addicted?---
She is really into sports and I know smoking makes you breathless and bad at sport. I think she would have a far better life if she didn't smoke. Sorry about the length!

All you can do is talk to her about it. It's good that you care about your friend, but there isn't anything more you can do than advise her on her decisions, and if she doesn't listen you just have to let her make her own mistake. It's really good that you aren't a follower, I applaud your efforts.
