How To Say No
At home
"Mom, (honey, friend's name), I know it's hard when
you don't smoke, but I know you care about your health.
I'd like to ask you to smoke outside from now on. I don't
want to hurt your feelings, but this is really important."
In public places
"I'd like to ask a favor. Would you stop smoking?"
"I'd really appreciate it. My doctor says tobacco smoke
can cause ling cancer in nonsmokers."
"Cigarette smoke is really bad for my allergies/my child's
asthma/ my husband's heart condition."
"Maybe you didn't know, but this is a nonsmoking area."
