People are starting to smoke earlier and earlier. When did you start smocking? Normally people start smocking just for peer pressure or to be cool? Do you think people smoke for other reasons?

I smoked once when I was about 13 - one hit and never did it again - it was disgusting!

I have never tried smocking, but I do love the looks of it. my favorite little girls dresses are by polly flinders, who is noted for the smocking detail on the bodices. I hear there is a come back to this art, and women are going back to the craft of hand smocking... such lovely detail and texture it adds to a garment. as for smoking I have tried it off and on through out my life - but never really made a habit of it.

I first tried smoking at age 17. After one and a half sticks, I stopped because I felt my breath's gone bad. I tried it because I was out with bunch of people from college - we went out of town for a summer getaway, and I was the only one who doesn't smoke. They didn't pressure me, though, it was more of a personal choice.

i tried to smoke when i was 20. i did it because my friend, well actually more than a friend, don't want to quit. they have this saying, if you can't force them to quit then join them. lol. well luckily for me, i quit smoking a year after. i just don't like the smell and taste.
