How many of you start smoking between 12-19 years of age..

I first tried one when I was 12 and didn't like it. I started smoking properly when I was 14 and now I find it really hard to quit. I think its one of the worst things I've ever started.

I don't know anyone who thinks smoking is good for you. I've never smoked. I think it's a terrible habit. It wastes so much money and it will most likely kill you if you keep doing it.

I started smoking in my 20's and no I don't think it's healthy but it's a hard habit to quite and oneday i plan to quite. But it's very hard i've tried a few times and it hasn't worked yet but i will keep trying and oneday i will succeed.

I started smoking at the age of 18. And, continued for ten years. Then I started getting soar throat, very painful. That's when I stopped smoking. It is gone for ever now !

hi Rick, although i also never smoke but i just would like to respond to your discussion because i find it very interesting coz a lot teenagers from our community start smoking at that very early age... i also saw a nine (9) years old kid smoking how terrible it is. the kid looks so thin. I also hate when someone smokes near at me cause i really don't like it.. as it really really can bring bad to our health but still many many people smoke..
