I smoked around my now adult daughter all of her life. She NEVER had an upper respiratory infection/problem, while she lived under my roof; not a one.
I have NO intention of giving up smoking when my grandchild arrives.
You can post every single anti-smoking link that you can find, but you know what? THEY DON'T JIVE WITH HISTORICAL FACT!
Lying about smoking and smokers and posting your brainwashed, biased garbage just doesn't hold up against real life stats.
If you care to post some links to scientific articles stating that smoking has no bad effects, I'm ready to be convinced. You must have these references at your fingertips, being that you're so sure smoking is harmless.
My question is, are your fingers nicotine stained, and are you afraid to smile because of stained teeth?
This new year is another opportunity for you bite the bullet. It's hard I know, I went from cigs, to cigars, to pipe, snuff, and now only martinis, all over a period of 35 years.
I never defended the habits. Merry Christmas too, and hope Jan 1st you quit, you may put on a little weight, but you may also be less grumpy.
GOOD LUCK
