Smoking is more than a bad habit, it is an addiction, just like heroin or cocaine. The younger a person is when they start smoking the more likely that person is to become strongly addicted to nicotine and the harder it will be to quit.
Suggested Interactive Activities:
- Have the girls ask their friends and relatives who smoke if they have ever tried to quit and if so were they successful and how long (how many times) it took them to quit.
- Have a representative from Nicotine Anonymous or other quit smoking organization talk to the girls about the difficulty in nicotine withdrawal.
