Smoking With Your Child (Only Smokers Should Answer)?
Question by GeezerRick: Smoking with your child (only smokers should answer)?
If you have a child, any age, but let’s say under 10, and you smoke, what would you do if your kid started asking you to give them a puff of your cigarette? You say no, and they go away, but as weeks go by, they keep asking, again and again. Don’t you think you would eventually give in and say “Here, take a puff, and then quit asking.”
Then say the kid likes it, and starts asking every day, several times. Pretty soon you have a child who smokes, and you helped. Before long, the two of you are sitting together smoking cigarettes, talking and laughing like friends. You come to really enjoy this time together, and so does your child.
This was what happened with me and my mom, starting when I was 12.
Now, why would anyone call this kind of thing “Child abuse”? Isn’t that phrase used a little too often these days? Why is being slightly permissive not considered a crime and unforgivable sin? Understand that, for the most part, it doesn’t hurt the kid, as they would have started smoking anyway.
Okay, give me the politically correct answers now. Say “why not share your heroin with them” or “why not just play Russian roulette”, even knowing that you are comparing apples with grenades. Why not allow your kids to enjoy smoking with you?
(I know this is a crazy question, but since one percent of 5 year olds smoke, some people apparently do it and like it.)
