If you smoke around your kids then you are an idiot but the courts need to stay the freak out of it
Want to bet that her cigarette habit was never an issue until the divorce?
Just wait for someone to agree and watch this thread take off. Smoking seems to be a touchy subject around here.
Well hey, its for the children, after all.
You are more than an idiot, you are knowing and willfully causing your child harm by smoking around them.
There was a good episode of Penn & Teller's Bullsh!t that showed the study used by second hand smoke opponents was flawed. That said, I don't smoke around my kids.
But I am sure you are smarter than all those scientists I paid for.
Aw, give me a break! Both my parents smoked around me and I just had a check up. At 48 I'm very healthy. Yes, I started smoking when I was 13 but QUIT when I was 17.
If a child has asthma I could see the health problem.
I don't allow smoking in my home and won't date a smoker simply because I don't like the smell.
These anti-smoking nuts have gone way around the bend IMHO.
I think it's time to forbid violent moovies in homes. And we should have a violence tax on all Hollywood moovies. It's for the children and we're just trying to save lives...
Never heard another word from her.
the UN study long ago disproved second hand smoke.
Being born in hospitol.
You see, your immune system "impresses" on bacteria when you are born - the bacteria in a ditch are actually good for you. The ones in hospitol are not.
According to Oxford University.
Both my parents smoked around me too, I'm a healthy 58. And Mom turned 92 this past July!
Bull. Where's the proof?
My parents smoked around me and I never even noticed it.
Seems like NOBODY noticed it until the nanny-state whiners began pushing their agenda.
Now the REAL idiots are conned into believing "you are knowing and willfully causing your child harm by smoking around them."
Merry Christmas !
You are more than an idiot, you are knowing and willfully causing your child harm by smoking around them.
That's a crock. My daughter was born into a smoking home. My hubby and I both smoked. I smoked before AND after she was born. And I even nursed her. (And NO! I didn't blow smoke in her face. I KNOW you are going to ask that NEXT!)
She grew up to be a beautiful young woman and now is married and has a babe of her own. She never had health problems. She and her hubby BOTH smoke! No one is sick. No one has asthma.
You have been blatantly mislead my friend.
High Five!
