the other day
Ms. Gao of Anshun, Guizhou, went to a banquet for relatives
At the dinner table, a little boy skillfully smoked
It made her very heart-wrenching
As can be seen in the video taken by Ms. Gao
The little boy is very young
But the smoking action is very skilled
Even if the adults are around
Nor did he shy away from it
Ms. Gao said
She had heard that the little boy had been smoking since he was 5 years old
It has been 4 years now
When asked how his family didn't care about him
The child's answer was a momentary distraction
No smoking
Ms. Gao: He said that his father knew that when he smoked, he hit him with a belt. But then his parents went to work in other places, and he lived with his grandmother, so no one cared about him.
Ms. Gao said she herself was a mother of a child
The look of this 9-year-old boy smoking
It made her very sad
Ms. Gao: The harm of smoking to adults is very large, and you can imagine how harmful it is to a child whose body is still developing.
Ms. Gao said, at the scene
She saw the little boy smoking several cigarettes in a row
I learned during the conversation
Usually, he used the living expenses given by his grandmother to buy cigarettes
Such a young child has become a smoking fan
What are the harms to the body?
To this end, the reporter told the Guiyang Maternal and Child Health Hospital
Li Yue, attending physician of pediatric respiratory medicine
Consultation was conducted
Li Yue said that adolescents are in a period of physical development and psychological development, and their resistance to harmful factors in the external environment is weak, so adolescents are more susceptible to chronic bronchitis, emphysema and lung cancer, and have an impact on the cardiovascular system, urinary system and reproductive system. The earlier the smoking age, the higher the prevalence of these diseases.
Smoking smoke in the high content of carbon monoxide, will directly affect the brain oxygen supply, while tobacco nicotine is a neurotoxin, long-term large number of smoking will make the adolescent brain damage, understanding and memory will be reduced.
What should I do if I find my child smoking?
1. Pay attention but not be harsh
Children smoke, parents should pay attention to it, can not be regarded as a small thing. But you can't blame the child, or scold the child, you should be patient to guide.
2. Guide children to be fully aware of the harm of smoking
Parents should take an equal and respectful attitude to guide their children to understand the harm of smoking to themselves and the surrounding population, mobilize their children's subjective initiative to quit smoking, enhance their own resistance, and consciously stay away from the harm of cigarettes. Tell children that tobacco contains hundreds of harmful substances, adolescent organs have not yet matured, easy to absorb these toxic substances, so that gradually destroy the body, smoking will also make the health of the people around them damaged.
3. Fundamentally remove the child's psychological dependence on tobacco
Improve family education methods, care about children's psychological dynamics, and reasonably meet children's psychological needs for maturity. Through the respect of adults for children, we can make up for the dissatisfaction of children's sense of adulthood and help children realize that true maturity is the perfection of the mind and the soundness of personality. Teach children some knowledge and methods of mental health care such as releasing stress, and gradually get rid of the spiritual dependence on cigarettes.
4. Behaviorally help your child quit smoking
Parents should be mentally prepared, quitting smoking is not achieved overnight, it needs a process, it will be repeated. As long as the child has the awareness to quit smoking, he must encourage more. Even if there is even a little progress, it is necessary to affirm and encourage in time to enhance the sense of pleasure and achievement of positive new behaviors to replace negative old behaviors.
5. Parents do not smoke by example
Parents should lead by example, insist on not smoking in front of their children, do not provide children with the opportunity to smoke and buy cigarettes, and try to protect him from the influence of people who are addicted to smoking.
6. Try to avoid children's contact with idle people in society
Children smoking in many cases is caused by curiosity, by the idle people in the society to instigate or tempt, said that manly people should smoke, do not smoke will make people look down on, etc., children can not distinguish between right and wrong, began to smoke behavior. Therefore, prevention is very important, pay more attention to the population of children's interactions.
