Overall, family is a powerful influence on teens because they are constantly observing and learning from their parents' behaviors and attitudes towards tobacco. Parents who forbid their children from smoking often influence them to stay tobacco-free, while parents who smoke themselves may inadvertently encourage their children to start using tobacco. Additionally, parents who take the time to explain the consequences of smoking can also have a significant impact on their teen's decision-making. Ultimately, whether parents strictly forbid smoking or let their teen make their own choices, their actions and words play a crucial role in shaping their child's views on tobacco use.
