Ok Brian so i ll use tinyint.But after that i make default 1 for
active and when i wanr to change it to inactive nothing happen.I am
using a checkbox coz i think it's the most appropriate for my
needs.Can you help me if i am wrong?Here is my code:

view
<?php
        echo $form->create('User', array('action' => 'change_status'));
        echo $form->input('User.status', array ('type' =>
'checkbox','label'=> 'Status','options'=>array(1=>'Active',
0=>'Inactive')));
        echo $form->input('id', array('type'=>'hidden'));
        echo $form->end('Save');
?>

controller
function change_status($id=null){
        $this->User->id = $id;
                if (empty($this->data)) {
                        $this->data = $this->User->read();
                } else {
                        if ($this->User->save($this->data)) {
                        $this->Session->setflash('User status has been 
updated!');
                        $this->redirect('/users');
                        }
                }
        }
