I am girl who is 12 year old in 7th grade. I was with two of my friends and one of them had cigarettes she take from her mother and we all three did try one. I thought was icky and felt little sick after and made me to cough so i said i not do it again. My one friends sister found out about it and tell on us all three and my parents got phone call from hers and they were super mad at me I tried explain i just tried them because friends did and i didnt like it and would not do again but still they not listen and i got a spanking very hard!! Also my two friends i miss very much because i am not allowed play with them again!! How i make parents change mind?? Was that fair since i said what happen and said i never do again?

Your parents want you to realize that they take this very seriously. They only act this way because they care about you and want you to grow up safe. It seems harsh now but in time you will forget about it. Everyone tries smoking at some time or another. Most people try it once and stop, like you. You should tell your parents that you understand why they were mad and promise not to do it again, na.

Well, your parents think your friends are a bad influence on you. Cigarettes today, drugs and alcohol tomorrow maybe. I don't approve that they spanked you. That is not acceptable in this day and age...you are 12, not 5. However, I do understand that they don't trust you to not follow your bad friends. You have to earn their trust back. Make some new friends who won't tempt you to do things you know are wrong and unhealthy. Your parents don't want you to get cancer. They want you to stay sober and smart. Maybe if you behave for a year, they'll let you see your old friends again. Sorry. You messed up.

Honey, you cant just get them to trust you again! You'll have to earn it and it might take forever! Best you can do right now, is make them feel how much you regret your *bad* decision and listen to them...do what they say...and all that good stuff! Be a princess, and if they still are disappointed, don't take it personally!

Give them some time to cool down, then try and talk to them and ensure them that you have now it tried it and didn't like it so you will never be doing it again.
As far as your friends go talk to them about how you feel about their ruling and maybe you can all work things out.
Good Luck

You make your parents change their mind by never smoking again. It kills and maims and it has nasty drugs in it like arsenic and the stuff they spray on to make hair die.

whatever your parents say, you must obey.
