Tobacco Quitting and Policy

Tobacco Quitting and Policy

If you dont know so much about tobacco, it could turn out dangerous.

Too many kids and teenagers already started using tobacco, so they got to quit. Or at least try. Teachers can help, providing assistance to the students by giving some information about the theme and linked them with programs about quitting tobacco. If you are a tobacco user, this could help you. Also you could even see some representatives in the school thanks to the program. Teachers and assistants from this program agency, often give rewards to students who apply techniques to quit tobacco.

This program is improved by teachers who are prepared to deliver the curriculum properly. Also this teachers make activities to help the kids and teens.

The mayority of tobacco companies try to get to the schools to sell their product. So the schools are or should be off limits to tobacco companies. The problem is that the tobacco companies dont stop trying to get inside the schools, so they make "gifts", like book covers, anti-youth smoking books and money to achieve the program intended. Some poor schools say that they can only offer this tobacco prevention programs by accepting the money and gifts that the companies provide. Yet, most schools dont even try to get funds for this cause, so they accept the help from the companies. That is always a bad deal for the kids and teens.

The schools must regularly evaluate and take stadistics about how much this programhas helped and how many kids and teens have left drugs. This is always useful because it helps to see which areas needs some reinforcement and to persuade others schools to start adopting this program.

The policy about tobacco in schools obviously says that it is ilegal, unless it is used as a medicine. Even that, the companies still try to get into the schools, as promoting them legally. The policy is not that strict, it should really improve and at least try to help the teens to get off drugs and tobacco.

Summing it all up, instead of stopping kids starting, we should help the ones that have already started. Apart from the help the programs give, the teachers also help by helping the kids and being like a tutor for them in this process. The policy also is too soft about the issue, so it should be more strict about teens and tobacco.
