No, there is no way to "make" another person to quit smoking. He will have to want to quit on his own.
OK, thanks for the tip
But I was thinking of just hiding his tobacco and all his pipes, and then he might get tired of looking for them and quit?
Honey it is not that easy, I have tried quitting and will keep trying too stop smoking cigareets.. ask him if he would smoke outdoors and show him pics of what second-hand smoke does to non-smokers
OK, thanks for the advice
Bad idea, talk to him instead.Quote:

He laughs at me every ytime I get hurt, I talked to my mom about it but she just says get over it, so il regret hhiding his pipes (I didn't hide them just a suggestion)
The only positive thing on pipes, if he is like the way I was, about 3/4 of the time it is not even lite. I remember spending most of my pipe smoking lighting the thing
My dad smoked a pipe too. He eventually switched to cigarettes when he found out that pipe smoking is even more harmful for several reasons -- no filtering the smoke, lots of time in the mouth (increases all forms of mouth cancer) and the more frequent rate he was induging in the habit. He eventually quit cigarettes too but anyone who has quit any form of tobacco (me included) can tell you it's a fight of your life to do so.
Talk lovingly with your dad. Maybe do a little research ahead of your talk to come armed with information. Not just how bad it is but where he can find help too. Sometimes a well planned gentle "intervention" works. Like so many here have said-- when he is ready, he'll quit. Good luck!
Man, if I tell him that, he might freak out, il give it a go.
I just did a little research on the web and found this, visit this link:

Good. Just be sure to get some facts first -- it will be a better discussion. Also be mindful that it depends on whether he inhales the smoke -- some pipe smokers do not (my dad did).Quote:
