Smoking
Hey, well my dad had a problem with smoking cigs years ago, and I caught him smoking again about 2 months ago. He told me not to tell anyone so I didnt. Then about a month and a half ago my brother went into the garage and found a pack of cigs. (They were my dads) I dont know why but I said to him, "Those are mine, dont tell dad." I told my dad about it and he said to keep that story. My brother again found more and I took the blame. I didnt feel right about lying to my brother and I thought he has a right to know, so today I told him about it. I feel bad now because my dad might get mad. Do you think I did the right thing? I'm not sure.

hey! u totally did the right thing!! i wouldnt have taken the blame in the 1st placE!! ur dads a grown up and i would have been mad at him for even asking me to do that! he should have taken the responsibility! and if he gets mad at u for doing the right thing then just tell him that! thats hes the adult and that was very wrong of him! but u did the right thing!

You did the right thing. Smoking kills. Maybe, from telling your brother, he can get your father the help he needs. From what I can see, you love your father very much and it touched me, but trust me - you did the right thing. Even if you or your father feel like you didn't - you may have saved your father's life. Goodluck and God Bless!

i think that you did because your dad somehow has to stop so telling your brother may be the right thing to do to make him stop! *hope i helped* <3/Dakota ~If YoU nEeD nE tHiNg ElSe JuSt DrOp OnE iN mY iNbOx

Hey!! I understand you're in an EXTREMELY difficult situation and its VERY hard to decide what you're supposed to do. Try talking to your dad and tell him that you've been lying to your brother but then told him the truth. Your dad may be mad, but its the best thing to do. You could end up in serious trouble because your brother thinks you were smoking. But anyways, Yea, you did the right thing. good luck!! I know its not easy having to keep a secret like that and then covering up for someone.

you totally did the right thing. You're dad's being a loser by having his daughter/son cover for him. that's PATHETIC. It's good that you told your brother b/c you're sickof lying to him. :)

i think you did the right thing... Personally i wouldn't have taken the blame at all to begin with. Because if he thinks he can smoke again with no problems, then he should be able to take responsibility for it too. you don't have to take blame for things like that, even if it IS your dad. your dad might have a problem with cigarettes again... talk to him about it. if he gets mad then he's just being selfish. i applaud you, you did good!

yes you did the right thing, your dad is a grown man and shouldnt have his kids lying for him. how responsible is that? maybe now your dad will quite smoking if the word gets out. tell me how things work out.
much <3.

PeRsonally, I think you should have told youR bRother the tRuth the fiRst time! It's kind of you to look out foR youR Dad and take the Rap foR him, but it's also extRemely unfaiR. FiRst of all, youR Dad doesn't even have a Right to make you take the blame foR his pooR behavioR. You shouldn't feel bad oR even woRRie about youR actions angeRing youR FatheR. I think you definitely did the Right thing heRe. PeRhaps you and youR bRotheR can get togetheR and Really have a seRious talk with youR Dad about it. Find out why he's tRying to keep this a secRet, and make it cleaR to him how you feel about the situation. I wish you the best of luck! Hopefully I've helped!
