The summary of study implies causation. It is the biased propaganda of zealots. And just like most of their "ETS" studies, it is purposefully misinterpreted nonscience.

The antismoking militants have done great damage to property rights and freedom, and they have enabled government to encroach on our freedom. Now they seek to raise funds for the state through eventual parental fines and worse. Government has built on this permission to metastisize into other areas of safety statism. Zealots have spread their cancer more effictively than tobacco ever could. They must be stopped.

I also don't by shrill defenses of selfishness.

You also, obvously don't BUY the truth. Nor do you believe it, propaganda seems to be more comfortable to you.

"I'd have thought that was true about anyone who loved kids anywhere near as much as I do."

Don't you just love this kind of thinking?

Tyranny, it's for the children.

My PhD dissertation looked at 4 out of more than 1,000 variables I collected from a diversity of philosophical/religious value orientations.

Oh really? If you're so smart, how come you're not driving a taxi?

Talk about pointless drivel...

A specific question/challenge was posed to you........why do you refuse to answer it?

I will repost it for you:

If secondhand smoke causes children to become rebellious and antisocial, then please explain how the behavior of children has become more rebellious and antisocial in the decades since overall smoking rates have declined significantly in the United States. Defend your postition.

Why do you refuse to answer the question?

Holy crap! I'm speechless and I'm a nonsmoker. DOUBLE WOW! Your list indicates quite a few things that I'd better get on the stick and do.

I might come back to you on the adoption part. That is the one part that gets me for sure. Some people who get to raise kids sure don't realize what a privilege they have.
But you have put reemphasized the driving point to me. My approach is to take a look at the things I have and what GOOD I can do in serving others rather than whine and complain and doing nothing.

THANKS for the wonderful reminder.

I guess I don't like my kids after all.

I have no idea what any given individual does or feels or does not or does not feel regarding a long list of things including their own children.

I don't recall authoring a survey hereon nor distributing the survey nor collecting the survey nor analyzing the survey.

I did comment about a general, global impression I have on these threads. General--as in no specific--as in G E N E R A L--with all the hazards that go with being general.

You'll have to take up your feelings and actions regarding your kids with God. I wouldn't want to even begin to get into that business.

The answer is the influx of Walmartions in the last few decades.

Oh, I think most research warrants a skeptical eye.

But not a wholesale narrow, rigid, blindly biased, selfishly motivated toss in the trash of every aspect of solid research.

"If secondhand smoke causes children to become rebellious and antisocial, then please explain how the behavior of children has become more rebellious and antisocial in the decades since overall smoking rates have declined significantly in the United States. Defend your postition."

That, my freinds, seems to be the $64 question.
