well this is a shock heard his phone ringing, checked it out, it was in his work bag so i took a look and there were two fag packets in a side pocket were i thought the phone was i know to some of you this will sound stupid but were like a really kinda keep fit family so it strikes me as just plain like,,, unlike what i thought my dad was, i never thought he would hide something like this, if mum knew i seriously think he would be out of the house so what do i do? hmm
 
I'd consider it his business and think of something more important to worry about.

P.S. I am a non-smoker, always have been, and I hate smoking. But really, their business.
 
Are you sure he does? Maybe he was just keeping them for someone and forgot to give them back or whatever

I think you'd know if he smokes, first of all he would stink like an ashtray, smoke sticks and you would smell it on his clothes np. Also there's very obvious signs someone smokes, a smoker needs at least 1 every 2 hours so does he go for regular walks round the block or in the back garden etc?
 
yeah but he goes to the pub and plays guitar a lot but with the smoking ban now i dont see what he would do, also once about 2 years ago i thought i saw him walking home and i swore i saw like a spark in his hand but when i caught up to him (he was about 30 metres away) it was gone and i kinda dropped it

in response to the walks ting, if its in his walk bag then i guess he smokes at work ?
 
As said he may have just been holding em for a friend. Also if he does smoke you would smell it on him. If not you definitely your mum!
 
As others have already said, if your dad smokes you would smell it on him (especially his breath) and his clothes.

BTW do you normally check your dad's mobile phone?
 
meh let him get on with it, his life, his choice


besides i assume he already nearing 40+ therefore smoking probably isnt gonna make much of an impact on his lifespan

I for one am telling you that I've never fetched someone their phone, not unless they asked for it and definitely not if it was in their bag, because I might end up worrying about something I found in said bag that is none of my damn business and telling the world on an internet forum all about it.

So yeah, if that's not a crime then maybe it should be.
 
ok well im sorry for worrying about my dads health ps his hearing is **** so saying dad phone is no use, plus he 60 so not really technically minded... i guess it depends on who the person is really. oke then now this is all over lets all go back to picture and ethnic minority related threads shall we
 
Send him to bed without any tea tbh :D

As said, he's old enough to do as he wishes, they might be his, or they may not be his, eitherway there is nothing you can and should do.

What ever you do dont go looking in your dads sock draw or bedside table :D
 
just ask him? :confused:



really im not taking the **** ask hium, not us if you want to find out. What can you do about it? nout much really, but atlest he cant stop keeping secrets from you. One day you mite be able to chill with him smoking the green stuff.
 
First of all Ulfhedjinn, the phone is by-the-by - forget it.

Secondly, Eliot if it really bothers you talk to your Dad about it calmly and rationally, but bare in mind he is an adult and able to do what he likes (whether it's good for him or not).
