How to help my friend who smokes?

Home More advice Health

I have a friend who smokes, a lot. She's so addicted she goes around her house looking in ash trays for what she calls 'stubbies' (ciggarrettes smoked almost to the filter). I've told her many times that she needs to stop but she doesn't listen. Her mom founds out but my friend told her she quit. She steals ciggarrettes from her mom! She' 15 and she's smoking! It's disgusting! My dad smokes and I can't stand it. She says, "My sisters and dad started smoking at young ages so, I'm taking after them." But she's the one who decided to smoke! How can I help her without getting her into a ton of trouble.?
