Idk what to really do.
Yeah my sister is a problem but I tried talking to her about it. Not only did I get yelled at by my grandmother AND mother for trying to tell her to stop, but she got pissed as well. There is absolutely nothing I can do that isn't illegal, and taking the cigarettes away from her would just start a huge argument and they'd just take em back anyway.
They are very set in their ways and refuse to change at all. Even little things like "Hey it's hot in here, can I open a window?"
"DON'T OPEN THE WINDOWS!"
Then if I open the windows I get screamed at by everyone in the house.
So I asked them to please spray disinfectant in the ONE room they smoke, they can't even do that.
I don't have an income high enough, nor can I get a job that pays well enough for me to afford a living space.
There has been smoking in this house for decades and decades.
That house might have to be bulldozed. I don’t think it could ever be resold.
My advice keep your window in your room at all times. And the door closed.
Granny didn't die in her 70's, that was great-grandfather, who passed a few years before I was born.
Great-grandfather did die of lung cancer, great-grandmother who was alive till I was 15, passed from Skin Cancer.
Grandmother is 65 and doesn't have cancer, in fact, shes pretty healthy, has been smoking from a very young age, I think since she was a teenager.
Father and Uncle passed away young, but it wasn't due to smoking.

My sister is pregnant, smokes, probably drinks.My mom smokes, my sister's boyfriend smokes, my grandmother smokes.
They smoke in the bathroom of all places, and we have one bathroom so the smell is always there.
Thoughts and advice? (They ignore my suggestions to smoke outside, and making a bigger deal out of it will start an argument, I've done it before and no change has happened)
My advice is to construct a new bathroom for your personal use, if your home has space. You should try to raise funds for this end.
I also dislike smoking at personal capacity, but I have come to terms with the fact that it is not easy to dissuade loved ones from smoking - not my immediate family (no smokers in my home). Best course of action is to inform them that smoking is affecting you (your eyes in particular), and they should not smoke when very close to you. Mine listen.

First kid's name is PJ after his dad, second kid's name is gonna be Mason, he's due in March.
I'm not trying to get people to feel bad for me. You just aren't sympathetic to others' situations lol.
What I want, is a solution to be made, without A. Spending money that I barely have. B. Trying to force them to stop, which won't work.

You have a pattern dude. You present these situations, ask for advice, get it, then shoot it down because you basically cant get off your ass and do anything (you said you needed a job and needed to move out of your house; i gave you a list of jobs that provide room & board and dont require shit in experience. Your reply was along the lines of oh no i couldnt possibly do that). And then you ask for more advice.
Its why i stopped replying to those threads in the OTF.
The whole 2 year pregnancy thing got my attention, however.
Enjoy your thread. 😛

I like the cut of your jib, son

Idea: hold an intervention for her and show her what a condom is.
Now BE SENSITIVE! This new invention might shock her. Imagine showing a caveman a comptuer.
