Smoking tobacco is becoming increasingly popular among young people with potentially serious effects on their health. Explain some reasons for this problem and suggest some possible solution.

More adolescents are becoming addicted to

cigarettes

and it affects their health badly. It happens

due to

the romanticisation of tobacco smoking and a high percentage of smoking adults who show bad examples. Smoking

cigarettes

always was popular among teenagers and

this

trend tends to become more widely spread. There were a lot of books published and movies filmed where protagonists are used to smoking. These types of characters are extremely romantic and young people want to look like their favourite characters.

Consequently

, they start smoking.

Moreover

, a lot of teens saw how their

parents

roll handmade

cigarettes

and smoke them. These childhood memories became a basis for adolescents.

As a consequence

, teens who have smoking

parents

would smoke and until the proportion of smoking adults grow, the number of smoking teenagers will increase too

due to

the reason that kids are used to copying their

parents

' behaviour.

For example

, almost all my classmates who have smoking

parents

became addicted too.

However

, there are some solutions that can be useful in

this

situation.

Firstly

, governmental social media should start different campaigns against smoking in a collaboration with popular writers and artists who can have an impact on teens.

Also

,

parents

should give up smoking to prevent their children from

this

addiction.

Such

an example would be extremely effective. On top of that, governments should increase taxes on tobacco products to make

cigarettes

more expensive, so, young people would not have enough free money to buy them frequently.

To sum up

, smoking tobacco by the young is a growing social problem and governments should start acting to prevent new generations from having

this

awful addiction.
