Hi Brad,

I have the same problem. I started smoking recently and I didn't tell my parents yet. It's strange I really don't feel comfortable in telling them. But the sooner or later we probably have to bite into the bitter apple and just do it!

It really depends on the kind of parents one has. A friend of mine can smoke freely at home with his mom. I don't think my parents would ever allow me to do this...

Well, I know that was not very helpful, but anyway, good luck,

Milo
