2 year old boy smokes 40 cigarettes a day!
Posted by: | Comments
How can a parent let a 2 year old boy smoke smoke?
Ardi Rizal is a 2 year old boy that smokes 2 packs a day. Ardi is from a small village in Indonesia called Musi Banyuasin, smokes 40 cigarettes per day. His first cigarette was at 18 months old given by his father (you think the mom would lay the beat down on the father).
It is bad enough that he is overweight, and could barely play with the other kids and now when you add smoking to the mix. That means he is even worse shape.
At a 2 year old life the child is growing of course. Researchers have found that smoking stunts your growth in the growing years (teens). What happens when a toddler smokes.
The bad thing is he so addicted that they cannot do anything about it. If he does not get his cigarettes the boy will bang his head on the wall. You want to know the worst part about it, the government offer his parents a car if they could get the little boy to quit. Their parents passed the free car up.
The boy smokes only one brand that cost the parents 5.50 dollars a day. The parents need to be adult and do the right thing. Not just because they are an adult, but because that is their son. What about loving the child. If he is overweight and smokes that is a double whammy. I wonder how long that Ardi could live if he smokes 2 packs a day and his overweight at the tender age of 2 when he is suppose to be growing.

Cutting back on cigarettes gradually
Posted by: | CommentsCutting back cigarettes gradually is one of the best techniques to quit smoking.
With this method, you open your cigarette pack, then throw one away. Then the next day or week, throw 2 cigarettes away.Before long you will be a non smoker. Of course, you do not have to throw a cigarette away, but it makes it a lot easier.
For example: if you smoke a pack in 24 hour period, throw one away. Pretty soon you be down to 0. Do not go out and buy another pack or cigarette, you want go from 20 to 19 to 18, etc
When you to a certain amount of cigarettes, buy a single stick cigarette, these are often cost 75 cents, and when you spoke 5 single stick cigarettes is a lot better than buying the whole back, because I feel guilty and want to smoke the whole pack.
Another tip is to switch brands that is harsh instead of smoking favorite brand. I would not want to smoke a lot of cigarettes that I do not like
Important points to remember:
- When you throw a cigarette away, do not buy another pack and smoke the other cigarette. This will defeat the purpose.
- Use other quit smoking tactics and tips: like patches, gum, other quit smoking aids
- Do not think of money that you are throwing away, think of as saving money by becoming future non smoker
- Stay away from bars and other places where you smoke a lot.
This method is a lot better than cold turkey method, where you just give it up completely. So start cutting back your smokes gradually
