Why I Don't Like Smoking

https://openclipart.org/user-detail/tribut

My parents smoke. I don't like it for so many reasons. Number one, it causes sickness such as cancer. When I was younger, I don't remember what age, my dad was diagnosed with cancer. Thank God the doctors caught it early, and cut half of his kidney out.   Number two, it cost so much money every year. My mom spends about $50 a week on cigarettes.  Finally number three, it smells. I am judged all the time because I smell like smoke. I will be at school and the kids around me can smell the smoke, and sometimes they say "someone smells like smoke." I really hate that, because I'm judged enough already. Smoking can also be addicting. My dad quit for about 5 years! Eventually he started back because of stress at work. He is trying to quit again, hopefully soon.
