Yo,

Just tell her the truth. You tried that road once and found it horrible, so you've come back home and are ready to make another path (don't really say that). Promise her you won't do it again and if you know someone who smokes amd their smoking is brought up, say its disgusting to proove your point ;-).

And well done on not choosing smoking! Then again, the biggest rde boy in our year doesn't smoke...sfdhwemigfhag...

Bev Conolly agony auntYour mum probably smelt the smoke on you that one time that you took a drag and now she's worried that you're going to get addicted, because you did it once.

Next time she does her tutt-tutting, tell her that you agree. Tell her that you tried it just once, and thought it was disgusting and that you're not ever interested in trying it again.

That's really all she wants to hear.

By the way, congratulations for having the courage and intelligence to decide that smoking's not for you! Good choice. Now, just let your mum know how smart you are.
