R.I.P. K.J.T.

Smoking killed my grandpa this past December just a few weeks before Christmas. I'm one of the only people in my family who doesn't smoke because i don't want to die like the way he did. Majority of my family smokes and a lot of my friends do as well and it doesn't bug me it pisses me off that they will even do something that will kill them. I don't think they should be banned because people will just want it more and do it more but i do think that increasing the taxes will help a lot of teenagers quit because they don't have enough money to be buying a pack a week. I'm allergic to the smell of it and it bothers me even more to see pregnant women smoking. My mom did that to me and my sister and we both has mental disabilities and my sister almost died at birth as well. Smoking causes so many problems in families. To me smoking is just asking to die early and it smells horrible and the taste of it makes me want to puke. My boyfriend smokes and it's an ongoing battle he is dealing with that I'm trying to help him with and ew gross i hate it when he kisses me right after he smokes but he's doing better. But whatever. Smoking is horrible and should have never been brought up in the first place. It tares families apart and makes it harder for people to live. I'm glad it's been banded in public resturants but it should be banned in public places as well to not completely banned thought. There should be specific places where you can and cannot smoke. I hope people stop smoking and they stop for themselves not for others and i don't want my mom to die the same way as my grandfather did. It's scary and heart breaking to even think about it. I'm named after my Grandpa by the way Same initials. If you are a smoker in this class stop it's the best thing that will happen to you once you do.
