The purpose of this study was to understand parental approach to the topic of smoking with school-age preadolescent children. In-depth interviews were conducted with 38 parents and yielded a grounded theory that explains how parents communicated with their children about smoking. Parents perceived smoking to be a latent danger for their children. To deter smoking from occurring they verbally interacted with their children on the topic and took action by having a no-smoking rule. There were three interaction approaches, which differed by style and method of interaction. Most parents interacted by discussing smoking with their children. They intentionally took advantage of opportunities. Some interacted by telling their children about the health effects of smoking and their opposition to it. They responded on the spur-of-the-moment if their attention was drawn to the issue by external cues. A few interacted by acknowledging to their children the negative effects of smoking. They responded only when their children brought it up. The parents' intent for the no-smoking rule, which pertained mainly to their homes and vehicles, was to protect their children from second-hand smoke and limit exposure to smoking. The theory can be used by nurses to guide interventions with parents about youth smoking prevention.
本研究的目的是了解家长与学龄期青春期前儿童谈论吸烟话题的方式。对38位家长进行了深入访谈，并得出了一个扎根理论，该理论解释了家长如何与孩子谈论吸烟问题。家长们认为吸烟对孩子来说是一种潜在危险。为了防止孩子吸烟，他们就这个话题与孩子进行了口头交流，并通过制定无烟规则采取了行动。有三种互动方式，在互动风格和方法上有所不同。大多数家长通过与孩子讨论吸烟问题来进行互动。他们有意利用各种机会。一些家长通过告诉孩子吸烟对健康的影响以及他们对此的反对态度来进行互动。如果外部线索引起他们对这个问题的关注，他们会当场做出回应。少数家长通过向孩子承认吸烟的负面影响来进行互动。他们只在孩子提出这个问题时才做出回应。无烟规则主要适用于他们的家和车辆，家长制定该规则的目的是保护孩子免受二手烟的危害，并限制他们接触吸烟环境。护士可以利用这个理论来指导针对家长预防青少年吸烟的干预措施。
