I have a secret...should i tell?

Well, my dad *supposedly* quit smoking years ago, but a week ago,I saw him smoking (he didnt see me) and I ignored it, and acted as if I didnt know..now my mom might be devastated if she found out, because she's the one who wanted him to quit smoking and putting his life on danger, but I feel guilty not telling my mom..what should I do? confront my dad? tell my mom? or at least tell my sisters first? help, should I tell?

But, he's your father, try not to put himself in danger..tell him to take care of his liver! Take care and God bless xoxoxxo Shazy AKA  
Date: 2/8/2004 5:54:00 AM  From Authorid: 3125    I think it would be best to talk to your Dad first. Your Dad could get the wrong impression if your went to your mother first. I know that I would feel offended if one of my children went behind my back and talked to their Dad first. Hope it all works out. ((Hugs))  
Date: 2/8/2004 6:03:00 AM  From Authorid: 33925    I agree with Rusure..Talk to your Dad first. Let him know that you saw him and ask him to quit again...  
Date: 2/8/2004 6:26:00 AM  From Authorid: 32133    well my dad does sumthing on the computer i dont know if its g-rated or not but i found out and i didnt tell my mom or brothers and its still a secret with me but i hate it i just want to kill my dad when he says he loves my mom.....so tell its not worth living with it.think about what happens if you dont tell your dad could get cancer and dies.....it wouldnt be your fault if he did but if i were you and he died from cancer after you could have told someone i would feel pretty guilty.  
Date: 2/8/2004 7:04:00 AM  From Authorid: 14412    I would talk to your dad first and leave it up to him to talk to your mother, for being an adult he has the right to do as he wishes. No one should be forced to change something, and if that is what is going on, then he will never quit. It has to be HIS choice, not hers, and from what I read here it was her choice for him.  
Date: 2/8/2004 7:55:00 AM  From Authorid: 35720    My Aunt does that too.  
Date: 2/8/2004 7:55:00 AM  From Authorid: 35720    I mean.. she said she quit smoking but I see her every once in a while.  
Date: 2/8/2004 8:02:00 AM  From Authorid: 33158    Hi!!!
Umh,I would talk to Dad if i were you, and tell him I feel dissapointed... imagine how mom would feel being the most desperate for you to quit smoking... And I wouldn't tell Mom!!!!!!!! Hope this helps.
Smile and be happy!
  
Date: 2/8/2004 8:38:00 AM  From Authorid: 51285    i think you should confront your dad first..but tell your mom afterwards, she deserves to know. hope we helped. -=+GG+=-  
Date: 2/8/2004 8:41:00 AM  From Authorid: 27741    Yeah a relative does that too, he and his wife quit, and his wife stuck to it, but he started again after a few weeks, and everyone knows except his children, he has been hiding it from them for years now. Smoking is terrible, just talk to your dad.  
Date: 2/8/2004 9:21:00 AM  From Authorid: 15157    Confront him and tell him you saw him...represent your disappointment but remain respectful to him. He will get the point!...I bid you Soothing Peace and Strength for your Dad!  
Date: 2/8/2004 9:41:00 AM  From Authorid: 943    If your mom is a non-smoker I would think she could smell it. If not, I would talk to your dad.  
Date: 2/8/2004 10:57:00 AM  From Authorid: 52337    It depends on what kind person your dad is. My dad is a liar. He's very good at it too. So, I would just tell my mom. BUT, your dad might be different. Probably is! Do you what you think is right. Luv Alws, Lizz  
Date: 2/8/2004 11:20:00 AM  From Authorid: 16845    I agree with rusure, talk to your father first..  
Date: 2/8/2004 12:13:00 PM  From Authorid: 11593    I can't offer any advice on that subject  
Date: 2/8/2004 3:24:00 PM  From Authorid: 4883    Its not your place to tell anyone... If you have a problem with your dad smoking then its between you and him... Until you know the facts all you are doing is blindly stirring up trouble... You don't know for sure whether or not that was the first smoke he had in years or not... You are assuming that he just continued to smoke and that is not necessarily the case...Perhaps he just had a weak moment.... Irregardless you should really quit trying to take some kind of moral high ground thinking its your place to pass judgement. If you have a problem with it then its quite simply between you and him... What I find strange though is as a non-smoker my self, I can tell when someone has been smoking when they get within a couple feet of me...They might get by once in a blue moon but not on any regular basis... Surely your mother can as well...Or perhaps she just chooses to ignore it... Or perhaps it hasn't happened but just this once...  
Date: 2/8/2004 3:56:00 PM  From Authorid: 8278    definitly, talk to your Dad first. let him know you saw him and see if he'd be willing to quit again. if not, it should be up to him to tell your Mom...but if he will quit, there is no sense in upseting her over it. best of luck to you.  
Date: 2/8/2004 7:55:00 PM  From Authorid: 54987    No don't tell on your Dad. Your dad feels guilty anyway or he wouldn't have done it in secret. If you have to talk to someone, talk to your dad. Tell him that you saw him smoking and it upset YOU. Don't deal with ifs and coulds. You can't legislate for your Mom's feelings - only your own. Tell him YOU were upset by it and don't want your Mom to be hurt. Don't go spreading the word until you have talked to your dad. You could be starting an almighty row that will make you even more upset. You Dad needs understanding too.
