Would you visit the home of a relative that smoked?

Thankfully I don't have this dilemma, although the answer is yes, I would visit as long as they didn't smoke in my presence. I would not, however, stay in the home overnight or even for any extended period of time. I can't stand the smell for long.

As I said before, anyone who would value cigarettes over family is pathetic. Many people enjoy walking around the house naked. That doesn't mean that if they have a relative coming to visit that relative should be subjected to it. Same goes for smoking. It's a habit that may be offensive to some people. In the case when one of those people is a family member, reasonable steps should be taken to accomodate that sensibility. Any smoker who argues otherwise has their priorities out of whack.

Anyone who would put their family below a smell is pathetic. What is the difference between you chosing not to spend an extended period of time at a smokers house vs. a smoker chosing not to do the same at an anti smokers house? Is it all based on the morals you get to dictate?
