Many teenagers have received “no smoking” education in school but we felt that it was not enough. Thus, we asked surveyors for suggestions on how to improve schools’ way of “no smoking” education. One felt that we should have schools inviting real smoke addicts and let them tell their stories, their regrets and the problems they encountered. That was a very fresh suggestion and we found it worth trying.
Our group wanted to know what could be done to prevent teenagers from smoking too. As usual, we asked for suggestions from surveyors. We received splendid response. They felt that family support, making teenagers aware of consequences, playing the computer games and banning cigarettes would be a helping hand.
We also found out that teens felt that sports could help them refrain from their temptations to smoke. Besides that, surveyors felt that activities like shopping, listening to music and reading would help too. Having a healthy lifestyle helps in another way to prevent smoking. Smokers should exercise more, eat healthily and do more sports. As the saying goes “Rome was not built in a day”, the road to deter teenagers from smoking may takes a long time.
