How do I get my parents to stop smoking?

My parents have been smoking for years. I have asthma and I have a 3 year old little brother. My parents try not to smoke around us and used to smoke out of our chimney in the winter. But now we just moved into a new house, and there is no fireplace so they just smoke in the house. They Can’t afford to use those quit smoking programs and buying cigarettes 3 times a day doesn’t help. They are truly amazing people, but smoking isn’t really making a good influence on others esapecially my brother and I. How can I get them to stop smoking?

      You can’t get them to stop smoking…this is something only they can do, and must want to do . Maybe you could ask them to smoke outside in the garden .

      Tell them that you don’t think it’s fair to you or your little bro that they are potentially giving you cancer. Give them a guilt trip, tell them the effects of 2nd hand cig smoke, it causes cancer. As them if they want you and your brother to die of cancer. Then tell them that if they care and want you 2 to be healthy to take 2 steps to the porch to smoke a cig. Good god these people sound so damn lazy.
