Do you want to become a smoker?
It's like saying you're going to jump off a bridge because your best friend did.You'll become a smoker if you *want* to be a smoker.Everyone has a choice.My mother is a smoker,my father is a smoker,my aunt is a smoker,my cousin is a smoker.But I can't *stand* cigarettes,the smell of them makes me cough and the thought of smoke and ash in my mouth just makes me feel ill.You have choice just like I do.If you want to smoke then you will become a smoker,if you don't want to then you won't.Simple as that.

Only if you are stupid enough to become a smoker! I am a smoker and it is the worst thing I have ever done and so hard to quit. Find another vice, smoking is dirty, expensive and highly addictive.

Well, statistically speaking you should. I come from a whole family of alcohol abusers, yet myself and none of my siblings drink. So I think in the end it's up to you, but the example you see at home is an influencing factor. The one thing that might help you decide, is that it's not so 'cool' to smoke as it was in the '50ties and sixties. People are more informed about the health risks now. My husband is trying again to quit and it's very hard. Ask yourself if you really want to go through that.

Not necessarily, don't think you will just automatically become a smoker just because the rest of your family does. In fact I urge you not to, I have emphysema from smoking for many years and it is horrible.

No, you wont unless you choose to, smoking is not hereditary.
But if you live with all these smokers you're inhaling all that access smoke.
Second hand smoke, it's not fair to those who like to breathe fresh air.
I'm sooo glad my dad quit smoking. Good Luck to those who are trying to quit.
You can do it.

Only if you choose to become a smoker, my whole family smoked and I chose not to. Its stupid and selfish. Do not smoke. Smokers do not get they are, committing slow suicide, as well as alcoholics and drug users.

Smoking is a personal choice, not something that just happens. One of two things will happen, you will be so used to smoke that you will also want to do it and it seems normal. Or you will learn to have smoking and never even want to pick up a cigarette.
