Your post really raised my hackles up.
When my grandaughter was in kindergarten she left school crying,saying,"Grammy is going to die". When my daughter questioned her she found out they had discussed the dangers of smoking in KINDERGARTEN!
My daughter,a non smoker,called the school and gave them hell for getting into something like that at such a young age.
I understand exactly what you are saying.
I would have done exactly what your daughter did, had it been in school where she got this from. But in this case the school can't be blamed, because the one that said it to her did not get it from school.
As far as I am concerned these anti-smoker-anti-drinker messages being shoved down the throats of children is counter productive.
There are a lot of things that only adults can do and no one questions adults who do them in front of children, do they? Of course not. Guess what? Smoking and drinking should be treated the same way.
this crapola has nothing to do with children and everything about control.
