I started smoking at 16 and continued until I was 23, and I was a chain smoker, I wished I had never smoked but for me having a baby my son, was the answer, I have never smoked since,It has been almost 25 years now, and I did it cold turkey, he was too important to me to even think about doing that to my precious baby, sadly my son has become a smoker, although never raised around it, he smoked because of his peers just as I did, he is asthmatic as well, and my deepest wish in the world is for him to quit, I worry constantly about his health.
