Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has shown that children are more likely to start smoking if they have family members who smoke, as they see it as a socially acceptable behavior and may view it as a way to bond with their family. LaShawna's lack of exposure to smoking and her parents' non-smoking behavior may serve as protective factors against starting smoking. The other options do not have strong empirical evidence to support them.
