WHY DO STUDENTS SMOKE?

All my friends, i've read and find the cause why students smoke. For me, there's more than just one simple answer. Some students may start smoking just because they're curious. Others may like the idea of doing something dangerous — something grownups don't want them to do. Still others might know lots of people who smoke and they might think it's a way to act or look like an adult. Fortunately, fewer students are starting smoking than a few years ago.Maybe that's because more and more people have learned that smoking and tobacco use can cause cancer and heart disease. But sometimes students can't really think that far into the future to worry about an illness they might not get for many years. In addition, it has never been a daily thing, more of a social thing. Since this class students been avoiding putting myself in social situations where they might feel a bit of pressure to join others when they smoke. All of the risks and dangers that come along with it, especially since there is a history of breast and prostate cancer in their family. So, that's why many of students now most like to smoke without think the risk.

    Hello...
    Salam...
    So,we are going to discuss our next research question, about "why do students smoke?
    During our those days, it is hard to saw students smoke, especially among the primary student.Our parents and teachers are very strict about discipline.Nowdays the scenario is totally different. We can see they smoking everywhere, even the young one in a school uniform. It is sad to see them in that kind of behaviour.

    So, why it is happened to them. Why they are smoking? After I read Puspa's view, I like to give my oppinion about this topic

    The young one always started something just for fun, to try something new and exciting. They are eager to have the taste of the cigarrete because they wonder why adult smokes. Its looked great and masculin for a man to smoked.(...in children eyes) So, once they tried, its hard to stop. Smoking is not much different with addict. Its getting worst when our young got in group. They encourage each other to smoke, even in public. Sometimes we can see them sharing cigarette. Hanging around in shopping complex and coffee shop with cigarette in hand. They are smoking just for fun...They did'nt think about the effect to their health. Actually they did not realise the risk and danger of smoking.

    Some students like to act like adult. Smoking means they are looking older than their age. Environment can be the most factor why students smoke. Everyday they can see people smoking everywhere, around them. Their father, their eldest brother even sometimes their mother are smokers. The environment inspire them to take cigarette.

  2. Assalamualaikum friends. Yes, I agree with your opinion on topic why students smoke.There various reasons that encourage students to smoke. Beside that, family also plays the important roles on the factors that made students start to smoke.

    Family problems such as divorced parent, parent that always quarrel or parents whom are very busy with their work may leave the students without any concern or caring.This will make the students to invalue into bad matters such as smoking just to release their stress. Once you started to smoke, it is very hard to leave it.

  3. Smoking frequently associated with evil and negative values such as gangsterism, stubborn attitude, lazy to learn, etc. Usually, if in school, male students are frequently associated with smoking habit. Nevertheless, nowadays quite a number of female students also involved with this bad habit.

    Basically, male students smoke because they want to look older, matured and of course masculine. How about the female students? Do they also to be look the same?

    Unfortunately, rarely a female student who has involved with this bad habit quit and become good or better. On the other hand, this bad habit has become worse and the number of smoking female students increases drastically. What a shame!

    This phenomena of female students involved in smoking will most probably become worse into :
    1. open relationship
    2. peddling their body for sex relationship (normally free)
    3. become stake goods of teenager motorcyclists (mat rempit)

    To all female students. There is nothing to be proud of smoking. Why smoking becomes your choice? To show that you are powerful or trying to show that you a powerful? Not all new things can be followed easily. If people commit in suicide, will we want to do so? And of course, not all the fun things are good.

    No use for us to be pretentious.. Just take the Malaysian billionaire, Robert Kuok as an example. He is very respected, but does he like to trouble himself? The answer is no. The fact is smokers especially female students gain no respect but ridicule.

    Think about who you will marry later? Is it with a man who has yellow teeth, black lips, a smelly mouth, less stamina? If you disgusting in men such this, means you are also disgusting in the eyes of your society if you are smokers.

    Our life is only once and only. This is the time to do good things and even the best things especially to ourselves!
