Talk to them individually. If you're riding in the car or you're somewhere else where you've got them trapped and they can't make an excuse to leave, use that time to confront them. Tell them that you're scared of what it's gonna' do to them and that you want them to be around for as long as possible and be able see their grandchildren grow up. Tell them that you're sick of sneezing constantly. And explain how embarrassing it is to have friends ride in your car and come over to your house because of the smell. Say that you understand it's hard to quit smoking, but that they need to do it. And don't let them use the excuses," I do everything for you...Stop being selfish...It's my body...blah blah blah..." Tell them they'll be grateful in the long run. Hope I helped! :)

Try talking to her about it and how much it worries you.. Just open up to her.. Have them both sit down with you and just tell them how you feel.. Maybe if they see deep down theyre realli hurting you an scaring you theyll try realli hard to quit it is possoble to quit.. If you really want too..

My mom was the same way...Now she only smokes in her room and sometimes in the car but never around me. Tell them how much it bothers you and if theyre not going to stop at least have them not do it around you. If you need more help just ask me. I'll be more than happy
