Yup, ask her to do it outside and when you are not home. Thats what my husband does (I dont like him to smoke around me either).

Negative waves...negative engergy...The best thing to do is buy a sage smudging stick, light it, and let the smoke waft all over your house and body. It works to remove any negative energy that is existing in your home and yourself. You can buy them in metophysical stores and places who carry religious supplies. This really works. It smells, but its worth it.

Give her your stash and parapheallia.  Then ask her for whatever you need for a smoke.  She will see that you have cut down, and maybe you can arrange with her to help you quit.\n\nReal people don't need drugs.  Just losers!

Not very good reasons to start smoking. I've smoked for thirty years and have no will power to stop but I try to stop anyone from picking up this habit. Let me fill you in on what you can look forward to if you start. Smelly hair (shampoo cant compete with the odor of cigarettes)Smelly breath (Listerine only last so long) Wrinkles around your mouth from that oral sensation your talking about.Shortness of breath (so forget any strenuous sexual workout. House smells like a astray no matter how much you clean. Food doesn't taste as good as what it does to you now. Finger tips turn yellow or brown from smoke. Cloths stink after a couple of hours of wearing them. All by the way cigs are four to five dollars a pack but you need to add in the cost to see your doctor because you'll have more colds and sinus problems and your lungs will slowly be destroyed so you'll need inhalers and probably medications to help your lungs function. So if you still want to know best brand let me know and I'll tell you mine.

I think there are alternative ways to deal with asthma, or any health problem, but i seriously dont think your reasoning is healthy or safe. \n\nEven if inhaling smoke was some how helping your condition (which is impossible because second hand smoke causes asthma) you're still running a triple threat for cancer, high blood pressure, and heart disease. not to mention the dozen chemicals in the smoke that actually kill live tissue in your body.\n\nThe goal with asthma is to keep the swelling of the air ways to a minimum, irritating them with smoke doenst help that cause. \n\nI think it is grace that you have no had wrose problems with your asthma.

my uncle has, and this is a recomendation\n\nfirst of all, get rid of all things to do with smoking, think of how your kids will react to your smoking. think about how you will be killing people with your secondhand smoke, get a hobby or something, and lastly, think about how you would improve if you stopped.

Steam inhalation & some breathing exercises will solve your problem. If you are a smoker stop it. Avoid contact with cigarette smokers.

The wish to stop smoking has to come from inside. Nothing you do will make your mom stop if she doesn't really WANT to.\nYou can, however, keep telling her how much you love her, how you want her to be with you for many years to come. Never fight, never confront her: just let her know.\nI was a very heavy smoker (three packs of cigarettes a day), and I quit 14 years ago after various unsuccessful attempts. What worked for me was the nicotine patch.\nI do believe that, when you are a smoker, your body becomes addicted to a certain amount of nicotine in the blood. The patch took care of that addiction, and then I only had to fight the sensation of not having something in my hand or my mouth. That is easier to fight than the physical addiction to the drug, because that is what it is.\nIt was not as excruciating as I thought it would be, and I have gone through very stressful situations in these years without resorting to a cigarette for comfort.\nI am so proud of my achievement that I dare put myself as an example in this matter.\nThere are many new products she could try: patches, chewing gum, ask around. Quitting cold turkey is extremely hard. I know I couldn't have done it.\nShow her my answer. Let her know those things do help. They do.\nI hope you will all succeed. The smells, the flavors, the deep breaths you can take without coughing, the stairs you can climb without suffocating, it's all worth it.

To repeat the advice I agree with:  You cannot make a person do something they don't want to.  It may be an underlying issue that needs to be addressed.  \nNow for my own opinion.  Criticizm adds stress which can make others want to smoke more.  I think it is good he is not hiding it from you, but ask if he would respect some boundaries on his smoking.  Some boundaries could be that he not smoke in your home, that he not smoke in the car if you are in the car with him or in other confined areas.  Ask him to brush his teeth after each cigarette.  Whatever the two of you can compromise on.

Yes, definitely. You are obviously doing this because you love them both and make her see this. Don't go on telling her to quit smoking because she'll only keep on doing this, she knows by now that it's bad for both of them, so try to make a compromise with her to make it alot healthier for her daughter even when she smokes. Like don't smoke when she's there, step outside or go to another room. Maybe in her own time she will quit smoking but make her understand that she can't continue smoking when her daughter is there.

wow... i guess try to tell her you have things under control. but it sounds like there is more to it if she is that worried about it. so either she knows every minute of your day or you are going to have more contact with the detectives. hard to tell you what you should do. sounds like  you have a major issue in your life going and then a complication to add to it. but good luck... i guess always remember... your day is always just seconds away from getting worse... so be happy with what you have. at least your mom loves you.... like i said... it could always be worse

Think about it....second hand smoke has been linked to lung cancer. You are inhaling direct nicotine and smoke. Now what do you think? \n\nYes, it can and does cause lung cancer regardless of how little amount you smoke. You are also at a potential risk for bronchitis, emphysema, pneumonia, cystic fibrosis, asthma and more. You'll do yourself good if you quit.

There is definitely such a thing as secondary smoke, where the smoke from someone else's pipe or whatever gets into the air and the other people in the room breathe a small portion of it.  You should either keep the windows open or smoke outside.  On the other hand, maybe you should share . . .

As an asthmatic I know your frustrations.  Controlling your allergies are key to controlling the asthma.  There are many things that your mom might be allergic too.  Dust and animal dander are the most common, but she could be allergic to mold, food and cleaning items.  I know for me having moisture in the air actually helps me.  I have a humidifier that is in my room.  The moisture keeps the dust settled and it keeps my airway moist.  This helps with the inflammation.  I often put eucalyptus oil in my humidifier.  It helps to open my airway.  I also use lavender oil.  The lavender oil is good because it helps me to relax.  If I get upset it triggers an asthma attack.\n\nWhen you vacuum you need your mom to be out of the house for at least 30 minutes. Vacuuming can actually stir up more dust and create an attack.  If you can not get her out of the house then you need to put a dust mask on her during that time.

Definitely should be laws against this! No child should have to breathe in second hand smoke- it's cruel. Parents with any sense wouldn't smoke around their kids.
