My older brother [age 64] died of a heart attack...From Smoking.
PLUS He had shortness of breathing... At age 60 he had a silent heart attack & the doc had him on 5 prescription smoker patches [He had been a 15 carton a week smoker]... You won't feel anything happen now that you are so young....
BUT wait until you are in your upper years... MY older brother had smokers cough for around 30 some years... And died at age 64. Trying to quit then will prove to be a royal in your butt b&&&h [not allowed to say those words & thus you see it as it is]. My nephew [my older bro's son] came up from Florida to help bury his dad. If you do have the urge to smoke... Studies have shown that smoking POT is by far greater good than smoking cigarettes.

Don't do it! Smoking is just bad period. I know there's a lot of peer pressure out there, but seriously, just don't do it

That's called RATIONALIZATION. I've only been a nonsmoker for about 20 months. FYI : smoking is very bad at absolutely any age.

It's bad to be a smoker at any age, but especially at as young as 13!!!! You may not see any effects now but trust me you will in the future! Do your parents know you smoke?

I started at 14 and you will think that you are stronger than the smokes and you wont feel anything bad but that will change. It slowly kills your lungs and fills them with black tar. It may feel good, or you might like, maybe it even makes you look cool but it's not worth it, trust me. And if the health problems aren't enough, the effect on your family life is horrible. If they find out they will never treat you the same.

It is unhealthy to smoke at any age. Just because you don't see any side effects now doesn't mean that there aren't any. For example your teeth are slowly turning yellow, you probably stink, your lungs are turning black as they fill with tar, your endurance is decreasing, you are wasting money and just in case you didn't know, if you are 13 and smoke you look really stupid.

Don't do things now that will hurt u later .. I just quit at 50. I hate it . It changed my health as time went on . You are blessed to be born after that you must know and take care of your inside body.. If not you can die much earlier than you think .. Stop don't please find something else to do . Google cigerate contents . You will see what goes inside of you when you smoke .. I also quit because of the air... Ozone layer.. Look that up too ..

its not a though you start smoking and instantly you drop to the ground writhing in pain, but even if you just smoke once you are in more danger of getting bladder, kidney,throat, mouth, esophagus, pancreas, stomach, sinuses, cervical, and bowel cancer also you could get leukemia a lot easier if you smoke because all the harmful chemicals like tar which 70% or it remains in your lungs and over time it builds up (look up the smoking handkerchief test), also the is carbon monoxide in a cigarette so if you were to inhale the right amount you could go into a coma and die but if you didn't inhale a good amount then its causes lung a heart problems OVERTIME and those are only two of many, many, many more

Please do not smoke. I held my mom in my arms as she died. A true smoker for years and would listen to anyone regarding quitting this habit. She had lung cancer. A memory I will never forget.

Yes, it is wrong. Though you see other kids possibly that age doing it (they smoke at all ages now) you still should not even consider it. It is bad period. You can start developing health issues at an early age. and honesty... do you want to not be able to run with your kids when your older because your lungs are ruined because of smoking? It turns your teeth, fingernails yellow. It is just gross all around. If you are, I hope that your not, smoking i would advise you to try and stop. or at least smoke less and less every day or week.

I smoked a pack a day for 29 years. Then I quit and thought, "What a waste of money."
29 x 365 x $5= $52,925

every cigarette takes a minute off your life. it would be smart to stop smoking so you can dedicate your life to being successful and people remembering you for who you are and not what it was that you were (a smoker)
