we all know that Smoking can cause cancer but many people still smoke. in the pack of cigarette you can see "Government Warning: Cigarettes Smoking is Dangerous to Your Health" other country you can read "Government Warning: Cigarettes are addictive" do the the smokers really don't mind the precautions that mark on the pack of a cigars?

i am a smoker and it is very addictive. even with the price and how terrible they are for your health, its near impossible to quit. starting? yes i see how stupid it is. but i started when i was liek 16 when a friend said here try this. i did and then continued for some stupid reason. if i could go back i never ouwld have taken a single drag, but now its too late and i am addicted and lose $35 a week to this dumb addiction.

just like drink.we all know it's harmful to our health still so many people addicted to it and can't quit.in my opinion,it would not be too bad if they are able to control the quantity,while many can't help themselves.they smoke and drink too much.

As an ex smoker I can honestly say that the Govt warnings did not effect me in the slightest! They are really graphic here as well, showing all sorts of horrific images of smoke affected arteries etc. The only reason I decided to stop smoking was because I always said that when I was 30 I would stop. Liking to be a woman of my word I had no choice but to stop! If someone turned back the hands of time I would probably start again in an instant

I first started smoking when I was 15, due to peer pressure! I have been smoking since then. I do know how bad it is for me, and I have a bad addiction to them. But since I know how bad they are for your health, I NEVER smoke around my kids! I go outside to smoke, or while I am at work. Never in the house! Thats my story, I guess I am weak folding to peer pressure like that!
