**Why We Should Stop Smoking!**

Why do people smoke? Well I’m going to convince you why we should stop smoking. My first reason is the worst thing kids or adults can do to their bodies. Yet every single day about 3,900 kids between the ages 12 and 17 start smoking and they can not stop.

My second reason is cigarettes and tobacco kill hundreds of people. Did you know rubber bracelets were created to bring attention to different causes?

My third reason are most middle school students don’t smoke- only about 1 in 16 do. And most high school students don’t smoke either about 1 in 5 do (that means 4 out of 5 don’t). Here are some problems why this affects kids more quickly. 1 - they can have bad breath. 2 - people get yucky yellow teeth and 3 - people can have more colds and coughs.

If you have a friend or a parent that uses tobacco you can help them by encouraging them to quit. Here are some reasons you can mention: 1 it will make your breath stinky, 2 it will hurt your health, 3 it will make your teeth yellow, 4 it will give them less endurance when running or playing sport and last of all 5 it’s expensive.

Anyone who starts smoking could be addicted to something It’s very hard to stop doing it even if you want to. Some kids get addicted to it right away and adults are often addicted which is why so many of them have hard time quit smoking. Almost every one knows that smoking causes cancer and heart disease that it can shorten your life by 10 years or more and that the habit can cost a smoker thousands of dollars a year. So how come people are still lighting up the answer in a word is addiction?

Did you know most people know that smoking can cause many other cancers and illnesses. Smoking directly cause over 100,000 deaths in the UK each year and contributes to many more.

Cigarettes contain more then 400 chemical compounds at least 400 toxic substances. When you inhale, a cigarette burns at least 700 at the tip and around to 60 in the core this heart breaks down the tobacco to produce toxins.

Did you know that smoking can contain heaps of heart disease and it can affect your body easily and also its not healthy for any one and also it makes you sick. Thats why I think we should stop smoking! ||
