Talking to Your Children About the Dangers of Smoking
Solve smoking problems by discussing openly with your child, explaining the harmful effects and cost of smoking, and teaching them to say no.

All issues can be resolved through discussion, so it's important to have an open conversation with your child about smoking. Clearly explain the extent of the harm smoking can cause to their body and, if necessary, use visual aids such as photos from the internet. It's important to not only explain the dangers of smoking, but also to convey that being around smokers is not healthy.


Many teenagers can be seen to be reluctant to smoke. However, the insistence of friends can lead to smoking a cigarette or trying an e-cigarette, and this can become a habit. Therefore, it is important to teach your child to say no. Teach them that there is no need to go against their own preferences and agree with their friends' wishes.


Advertisements can quickly influence the minds of young people. Tobacco ads often feature exaggerated images of smokers, which can make smoking appear attractive and lead to exaggerated persuasive tactics aimed at young people.


When cigarette ads feature smokers, they will mention the harmful effects of smoking as a warning.


The child has no source of income, so the parents pay the monthly expenses. Therefore, the parents can explain to the child how much money is spent on smoking in a year, and how much money could be saved if the money isn't spent on smoking.


Nowadays, many parents have become addicted to smoking, and their children often develop the habit by observing them. Therefore, it is not impossible for them to develop a smoking habit as well. However, if you want your children to stay away from smoking, do not keep cigarettes around them.

Can hookah go institutional? A hookah company seeking to go public makes its case with capital, technology and regulation
2Firsts explored whether hookah can evolve into a more mature and governable category by interviewing Dubai-based hookah company AIR. AIR argues that strong margins, OOKA’s closed-system model and the prospect of differentiated regulation could support that shift. The larger question is whether this is simply AIR’s capital-markets narrative, or an early sign that competition, regulation and category boundaries in hookah are beginning to change.
