As a 16 year old, using tobacco may sound idiotic which I to some degree agree with, but I still do it and I've been using it since I was 14 and up. But that's not what I want to share with you fellow snusers and others who just lurk the forums.
My life with snus is somewhat like this. I live with my mum, parents are divorced, I use Snus. My mum isn't a 100% aware of it still I've been using it for close to two years. She's found like two boxes of the regular Skruf but I've just told her "I buy it for the kids here" and she's like "Okies". (Few of you might see me as a kid but its another story as well).
My dad on the other hand... he knows. The whole thing started with my dad who had been smoking for like 30 years probably, he's now 52. I was getting irritated by his smoking-cough, and him always saying "We're planning on cutting down on it". So I said "Why don't you try that thing called Snus?" acting like I had never heard of it.
After a few months / weeks I went to my dad, into the kitchen and I saw two boxes of Skruf and he told me he was going to try to cut down on his smoking. It wasn't before we were going for 5 weeks to Thailand when he actually asked me before the plane from Vigra-Oslo if I wanted to try one and I just showed him my box and told him I had been doing it for quite a while. Surprisingly he reacted positive, and for my advantage we went into the Tax-free and bought like tons.
As I know to now he hasn't been smoking, and if he has it's not regularly. He has not been coughing as much either, which surprised me how fast it changed. And I love it when he tries to say "Skruf".
I'm sure a few of you have been in the situation (if Im not the only one under-aged here) being discovered by your parents using tobacco. Some may over-react, some may take it rather nice, but they all think "this is bad". After what I've read till now it's a big differense from smoking, which I think people and parents really should know about.
- but of course all parents wants their kids to be perfect / not doing "that kind of stuff".
You may think I'm just some kid who thinks it's cool using tobacco, I won't judge you for it either, I just felt like telling you this story about how Snus is good in a lot of ways.
