When I was little I hated my mom smoking and tried hard to make her quit but she said she couldn't. I didn't believe her. Then when I was 15 I smoked to get a girl who smoked to like me. It wasn't long before I found out mom was telling the truth. I tried and tried and tried but I could not quit. I was now a nicotine addict too.

I used to believe that only men smoked cigarettes and only women drank coffee. I guess this because my dad smoked but didn't drink coffee and my mom drank coffee and didn't smoke. When my dad's (male) friend drank coffee in the morning I was preplexed.

My dad used to smoke so obviously I thought it was a thing that only dad's did cos mum's dad and dad's dad did too. When i first saw my brother smoking I asked him if he was going to be a dad and was practising. My brothar looked at me wide-eyed, him and his girlfriend were about to have their first child! You can imagine how span out he was! I have recently learnt from experience you don't have to be a dad, you can be a daughter too!

Until my Junior year of High School I thought a roach was bug - six legs, never dies kinda bug. I could never understand why anyone ever smoked one or was excited to find one in their house.

I used to believe that when you could smoke on a cigarette even if the smoke didn't come out. only experienced smokers knew how to make the smoke come out, and the people who let the cigarette hang out of their mouth weren't experienced enough. I never knew why they put fire to it, and i never made the connection that that was where the smoke came from. I learned that when I was about seven

When I was a kid about 7 or 8 I noticed an odd odor and saw that my mom and my aunt were smoking.."a different" kind of cigarettes. My mom told me that they were "cigarettes without filters". Not knowing at the time that they were actually smoking marijuana, the next time I was at the store with her and she was buying some Parliament 100's, I asked if she could get the "cigarettes without filters" since they smelled really good.

I was absolutely convinced that the clouds were made from cigarette and cigar smoke and that the reason some people wanted the smokers to quit was so the sun would shine every day. I used to get so mad at my parents (and everyone else) when they would smoke outside and was 14 before I learned the truth. I still hate smokers, though!!

When I graduated from preschool, we had to stand up at a podem, say our names and tell somthing about our family. Well i stood up there and declared, "My name is Heather and my mom is divorced and she smokes pot!" took a bow and left the stage. Well everyone was shocked. My mom never smoked pot, only ciggerets. I saw a anti- drug comercial where they showed a joint on tv, and i assumed thats what my mom smoked. My grandmother was there and all the parents of the school children. The day care workers told my mom that she shouldnt smoke pot in front of me. hahahhahah

When I was younger I beleived that when you grew up, you smoked (probably because all of the adult around me did). I used to worry that I wouldn't know how to do it or that I wouldn't know how to hold a cigarette!

When I first saw my Grandmother smoking I thought that in some way she was a dragon because she was exhaling smoke. When she told me what smoking was (and that I shouldn't do it), I still failed to grasp the idea that the smoke came from the cigarette she was holding. I spent the next 6 to 8 months wanting to be a smoker because i thought dragons were cool. Hey, what 3 year old with a wild imagination wouldn't want to be a dragon?

When I was younger I caught my mom and dad making their own "cigarettes" and for years I believed them. Until I was old enough to be a party where weed was present. Once a smelled the weed I remembered that it smelled like my mom and dad's homemade "cigarettes". I then realized I had caught my mom and dad smoking pot!

My Dad is a chain smoker and he used to do a lot of fishing, using maggots as bait. I used to think that his yellow smokers fingers were from picking up the maggots and putting them on the hook!
