Q: I have had this friend for 6 yrs. She told me that she had started smoking and asked me to also. What should I do to help my friend

No I did not start smoking.
First of all, don't give in to peeer pressure or smoke. for your friend, since she has been your friend for so long you probably do not want to give her up. and you don't hvae to. try to help her to quit smoking. explain why its bad for her, how bad it is for her health, and everything. if she needs help, there are quitting tips & programs. or get a trusted adult to help you guys.

when she pressures you to smoke, tell her no & dont give in just because your her friend. smoking is really addictive, and even if oyu just smoke once or twice you can get addicted. and quitting is very, very difficult. its so bad for your health, and a big waste of money (think of what you could spend a year's supply of cigarettes on!). dont start.

Thanks so much.
