My UO

Although it is actually a PO.

I hate to see parents smoking in the car with their children or smoking while holding their children.

I have nothing against people who smoke, that is your choice but why should a child that has no choice have to breathe in your second hand smoke. It is just wrong. I saw this twice tonight and it just made me sad.

I agree and would go as farto say that includes people who smoke in a home with children in it.

Absolutely agree there too! I was driving home and saw a woman standing outside holding her little girl and smoking. It should be illegal

It drives me NUTS when I have to walk through someone's smoke, especially when I have DD with me. Move away from the entrance/exit while smoking people!

After grocery shopping the other day, I came to my car to find a lady sitting in her van with all the doors open (?) talking on the phone and smoking. I had to load DD into her carseat right next to this woman. I really wanted to give her a piece of my mind but bit my tongue instead. Ugh!

totally agree with you on this one.

I think it's wrong to smoke weed while your children are in the home, even if you are on the patio. My co-worker told me she did this and I was in shock. She said she would normally do it when she was asleep. I still wouldn't risk it.

Ugh I have a problem with smoking all together. I know we have the rights to smoke but it drives me nuts. Today we had a gorgeous day outside so while I was on the way to take DS to the sitter we had the windows down because he loves it. Well all of a sudden I am choking on a smoke smell and the lady right next to us at the light is hanging her cigerette out the window. Now I know she has a right too, but we had to roll the windows up and it was annoying bc it was still in the car. I know it's hard to stop both of my parent's smoke, heck that is probably why I hate it so much. Just drives me crazy.

I hate it too. I always roll my eyes whenever I see someone smoking with a child in the car. I hate seeing the person driving and then the child is sitting right behind them. Oh, and I'ma former smoker. When I was smoking, I would always make an effort to not be in anyone's way as it was my decision and I didn't feel someone else should be caught in my smoke.

This seems like a pretty popular opinion.  Especially when you have kids, smoking is gross.  and I used to smoke........a long time ago.  My sister smokes and her LO's carseat just reeks of smoke, it's so disgusting and makes me so sad for her daughter.

Maybe this would make it more of a UO, but I think it should be illegal for people to smoke in cars and homes when there are people under 18 inside.
