hey,

i hid my smoking from my mum for years, i started in yr 7 lol..I never smoked in front of my mum even tho i knew she had an idea i did..I just felt disrespectful to smoke in front of her.Only the last yr i have smoked inf ront of her and it felt alot better that i wan hiding anything from her.Its good you and and your son have a close bond, i hope to be like that with my children..

LOL i remember you telling me this on msn. What a shocker huh, but like i said in msn, at least your son was upfront about it, and really honest about it. Well doen on your son for telling you.

Oh Lisa, you certainly need to get this sleeping issue sorted one way or another.  Are there any sleep schools in Tassie (where you are).  Tresellin (not sure if I have the spelling correct) is one, and another in Melbourne area.  Will try to find the names for you.  Tried doing a search online but couldn't find anything!  anyway, you need a solution to your problems. 

As for the smoking, you just deal with things in the best way you know how.  I would just keep your smokes away from your son.  It won't stop him but it will certainly make smoking harder for him. 

And are you a nurse?  you mentioned 2 dying and it sparked my interest as to what you do.  I am a nurse. 

Well, best of luck to you Lisa, minti mail me if you want to talk more-Angela

instead of givign her milk at night ( while in bed) change it to water she will soon realise that milk is no longer offered and she will stop asking for it. this is what i was told by a health nurse and a home group my hubby and i did.

sorry to hear about ur son but they do try theses things at that age if not before. iw as about that age when i did it. did nt like it thank goodness.

good luck and take care

hello

i am glade your son told you . my sister smokes and she begged me to tell my mum . it must be a big relief of his shoulders that he has told you and doesnt have to hide it yes it is bad but imagine finding out second hand .

hope you get some sleep and find a way of dealing with it

love belxxx
