How reducing cigarette advertisements help teens stop smoking?

It doesn't. Teens who grow up with parents/siblings/friends who smoke will have a greater chance of at least experimenting with smoking. Cigarette ads never influenced me to try smoking. Antismokers would argue Joe Camel influenced teens to look into smoking. But I disagree with that too. I'm not gonna try Camels just because I saw a cartoon character in Camel ads during the 90s. The high prices might be a bigger influence on teens who wanna stop smoking. Although it's illegal for them to buy cigs under 18 in most states anyway. Cigarette ads are a thing of the past based on 2012.
