how can i help someone stop smoking?

Question:

my aunt and uncle both smoke 2 or 3 packs a day. they have 3 children. 2 out of 3 have learning disabilities. the family rarely any money because of the nicotine addiction mixed with a dunkin dounuts addiction. they need money to fix theyre house but no one will give it to them because they will spend it on cigarettes. so they dont have enough money to afford any treatment because i highly doubt either of them will use the patch or chew the gum. i really worry about them because they are my godparents and theyre kids are at risk too. so if you have any ideas or know anything that works please help.

Answers:
its tought to talk a smoker into quitting, if they dont really want to quit they wont even try. some people are just stubburn and/or dumb.

you could maybe go over the math though and show them how much money they would save if money is a problem for them

take all the packs away from her!
at my dentist they had a packet that described how to
she has to be willing, have her try chewing gum instead of smoking

they have to want to quit for them selves no one else its an addiction like drugs if you push them it will only make them smoke more
