how do i make my hubby stopped from smoking?

well I think you have a tough challenge for you dear. I was a passive smoker since childhood as my father used to smoke. but thankfully now he has stopped doing that. I think you have nothing to do much until and unless the person himself really want to quit. I believe that he is aware of all the consequences of smoking and that it can cause him serious lung cancer. I have many friends complaining about their partner's smoking habit but the more they try the more they fail. I think you should do some serious talking with him convincing him in every way and even telling him that his habit make you feel sick. you have to keep your patience as this is not going to be easy as this habit make people addicted. all the best.

The first thing to understand is that you cannot (and should not expect to) change someone's habits or way of thinking. Only they themselves can decide whether to stop smoking or drinking or doing whatever YOU think may be harmful to them or others. All that you can ever do is to present them with the evidence and reasons why what they are doing is harmful and HOPE that they will be convinced enough to change their ways. Of course, the other thing you can do is to disassociate and remove yourself from people who are doing something which is harmful to you and of which you disapprove but I suppose that it is not a matter serious enough for a divorce or a separation. The very best way of helping someone you love to change their mind is to use some cunning and subterfuge. Of course, you should make sure that they know all about how harmful the habit is to them and others but, after that, make sure that they know that you love them and care about them and ACCEPT them for what they are! Encourage them to smoke ... (but suggest that they do it away from you and the children). By doing this, you are saying "You know that I don't like you smoking but I know that it's something that you can't change at the moment. Nevertheless, I love you and accept you for what you are and I know that you love me and the children more than you do yourself, so go ahead ... smoke, if it gives you some small pleasure, but please try not to harm others by it." I can assure you that, if you love someone and accept them as they are, you will do FAR more than if you keep antagonising them to change their ways.

i think the best way is when he realize that smoking is not good for his health and of course your health you can`t push him for stopping smoke because maybe he had been addicted with smoke..right
