When my kids are in my parents’ place – you will often hear me complaining to my father. He’s a chain smoker and I hate seeing him smoke when the kids are there. Primarily – my daughters are very sensitive when it comes to dust and smoke and so I wanted him to understand that it isn’t something to be taken lightly.
He have personally witnessed the very fragile situation that my daughters went through and he was able to undo his habit back then. And now, he went back to what he used to be – a chain smoker. I never really liked being around him because of passive smoking and I do not want my kids to suffer the same. I wonder when he will stop. Hmm – I saw something on the net about electronic cigarettes but really not sure how it functions or if it does have the effect of the regular cigarettes. I might probably have to check it out and see.
If this innovation is a healthier version of the old cigarettes, I will be very much willing to share this information to him. For now, I only have a few reviews about it but I will have my own research. I wanted to check on this personally. I know my father would hate me for asking him to stop smoking but if I can have something to replace that, I know he’ll give it up – just like the time when I am always bring home candy substitutes for cigars. He liked it.
I can relate, my father smokes too and I hate it when he does it when we’re around because 1. I am pregnant and 2. My little girl is prone to asthma.
