In the experiment, 40% of adolescents (from 13 to 18 years), 30% of young people (from 18 to 30 years), and 30% of the older generation (from 30 years) participated. In general, 750 people from different social strata and different place of residence were examined.
Is smoking useful? We are sorting out together! So, the proven experience about the benefits of smoking.
For the first category of participants in the experiment, smoking is a taboo that obedient children can not overcome in proportion to their psychological impotence compared to strong and authoritative parents. It is necessary to take into account one important factor in the interaction of adolescents in society, where there are also adolescents with poor upbringing and who do not have any authority for themselves. Such adolescents themselves become leaders and authorities among their peers, because they have fewer restrictions, more freedom, and therefore more chances to use their own energy of development in the plane of becoming, leadership. Then there is a simple process of imitation of the leader, which, as a rule, leads to a reassessment of values and full adherence to the habits of the leader. The compiled chart of the statistics of the beginning of smoking indicates that 80% of modern youth starts to smoke precisely in the period from 13 to 18 years. These are indisputable facts, which speak about the penetration into society of an irresistible phenomenon. It is important to note that most of the teenagers who smoke have become psychologically resistant. To connect this phenomenon with the ingestion of nicotine into the children's organism is absurd, rather it is emancipation and a sense of independence, a contradiction to the established rules, even if imaginary, but so important in the formation of the personality.
For the second category of experience about the benefits of smoking, a cigarette is something that can be avoided if external factors of development contribute to this. The problem is that the personality is actually formed much later than 18 years, and due to these circumstances, there is often a desire to "do something wrong". The reasons for starting smoking at this age are very different but, as a rule, these are frequent stressful situations, discontent with life and other psychological problems. Most can not cope with their own problems without a psychological stimulant in the form of a cigarette.
For the third category of the experience of the benefits of smoking, smoking is completely uncommon. Rather, on the contrary, they try in every possible way to overcome this dependence.
So what is useful in cigarettes, you say? If you say that absolutely nothing - then openly lie. Cigarette smoke that enters the lungs is, of course, poison, but it is a poison not only for humans, but also for all microorganisms, including harmful ones. The study showed that adolescents who smoke, suffer from allergies, flu, bronchitis, upper respiratory tract viral inflammation are 40% less than others. This is only a medical fact. If we consider smoking more deeply, from the psychological and social development of the individual, it should be noted that it can often positively influence the interaction of a particular person in society and his personal qualities.
Smoking is a mysterious process that has come to us either from ancient shamanic tribes, or from the mother's breast along with sucking milk. Perhaps this process is inherent in us genetically, and only we tried to resume it, it immediately became a part of our life. Anyway, smoking has become an integral part of our culture, whether we want it or not. To overcome completely this phenomenon is impossible, otherwise the freedom of choice of a person is jeopardized. Smoking in any way can not be praised or promoted, but rejected as a ridiculous mistake of humanity in one moment will not work ...
