Oh yes. That's always effective. Unless they're not afraid of cancer. blink.gif Who isnt??

Of course they have the chance of becoming daily smokers.
It's a terrible addiction, and many teens that try it even once can become addicted, which could easily lead to becoming a daily smoker.

I don't have much advice.
Have you tried talking to them or their parents?
If they won't listen, then talk to their parents about it.

Telling their parents might seem a bit of a telltale, but talking to them will help. Tell them you care about them and don't want them to turn out like one of those scary smokers with yellow teeth and horrid breath. Get yourself to cry, if it helps. mellow.gif

Well, if they won't listen, I'd definitely tell their parents.
It's not really being a tattletale if you're telling their parents something like this.
This is a very serious situation. This could get out of hand, so I don't see how telling their parents would be a "telltale" approach.
