How Can Tobacco Addiction Be Treated?

Hello sir, My dad is addicted to tobacco. My mom is fed-up of telling him to stop chewing it. He doesn t listen to me or my mom. We are worried for him as we have heard tobacco causes cancer. I don t want to loose him. We have tried to give him nicotex but he has a very stubborn attitude and doesn t want to try it . Please help me with this problem.
