Tell your father to stop smoking in the house and smoke outside! Inhaling cigarette smokes is far more dangerous than actually smoking one! You can also get an Air Purifying unit put in your room (ask your local electrical goods store people about this). Ask your dad for money since he’s the one causing this problem.

This question kind of made me feel sad because you are taking this serious as you should and your father still continues with the habit..try talking to your dad and tell him your feelings about smoking.. I think there is a high chance for you to get it :( ask him to not smoke around you for now and then help him quit with
those patches.

try to avoid him whenever he smokes, maybe go outside when he smokes (or inside if he does it outside). Your chances aren’t all that high but still you could get lung cancer from secondhand smoke.
