I know you have to be 18 to buy cigarettes, but I'm not sure how old you have to be to smoke

    Unfortunately in many communities like mine there are no laws against tobacco use and age. There are only laws against purchasing tobacco. Lawmakers are just now coming to this realization and are working to make new laws.

      In Calif you have to be 18 to legally purchase ciggies.  I guess you can smoke at any age, I haven't really paid much attention to the law.  I am a non smoker and plan to remain that way.

          You have to be sixteen in order to smoke them and eighteen to buy them.

          18.But there needs to be radical change of viewpoint,as far as norms and standards are concerned.We all must ask the question:Do I really love and care about my health? Myself? The older we get, the more bad habits take their toll - some faster than others. A smoker, of non-filtered camel Ciggs for over 60 years, finally dies of lung cancer; or a lover of snuff,after 70 years, dies of throat cancer.We need to make responsible choices, while very young.

            There really is no legal age... Like you said you have to be 18 to purchase them. Theres no law that states what the legal age is for smoking them.

            How old do you have to be to jump off a tall building?Smoking will kill you just as surely except that you will die a slow, excruciating death. It is not glamorous and you won't look cool. You will have fewer friends, fewer places to go to, fewer job opportunities. You will feel like an outcast as intelligent people will avoid you.
            Tobacco is a very addictive drug. It is almost impossible to quit.
            You have a glorious life to live. Be smart, don't start. Enjoy life.
