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.

Statistics from a US study in 2005 indicate that 23% of high-school teens smoke, up 2% from the 2003 figures. 80% of smokers begin smoking before the age of 18, indicating that the line "I can give up any time" is self-delusion. Worldwide figures from the website below (see link) show that one in five teens between the ages of 13 and 15 smokes, whilst between 80,000 and 100,000 children worldwide take up smoking every day. About half of these teens live in Asia. One of the factors that should be addressed in reducing teenage smoking is peer pressure. All the health warnings in the world will make no difference as long as teens think that smoking is "cool".
