Poll on kids smoking

For those of you who missed out on the poll and the post. This is in continuation of the post When your kid smokes. The question asked was “What will you do when you catch your kid smoking?”

Maximum people picked up the option “Try to reason and show the right way.” Some did nothing and some wanted to use the same technique that was (I hope) used on them. Brute force!

Few were confident enough to say that they will emotionally blackmail the kids. But the latest trend is the other way round. Kids it seems are better in blackmailing there parents. Through in the guilt conscious of the both working parents and kids get almost everything.

Couple of them picked the answered that they will sit and smoke with there kids. Well frankly I will wait till they catch there kids then see if they can really smoke with there kids.

Prithvi on the other hand had put what he might to in points as follows.

1. Force the child to smoke continuously till he/she is sick so that he/she never wants to try it again

2. Take the child to a lung cancer hospital and show the suffering that come from smoking, also show some burnt lungs

And at last I can say that you guys are as clueless as I am about this topic. But this forum did help some of us think of the various scenarios.
