Little jimmys mum should stop smoking 40 a day round him then and perhaps he wouldnt have asthma.

My little Jimmy (ok his name is not Jimmy but there you go), does not have a mother who smokes, nor a father that smokes either.
He has asthma because it runs in the family and because he was born prematurely and developed severe bronchiolitis as a very young baby.We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.0 -
OK, fair one, but I didnt link all asthma with smoking.
But it is a cause, something that filthy council estate wenches seem to forget whilst happily puffing away in front of their siblings.
The message it sends their children isnt great either really is it? Hardly demonstrates self discipline does it?
Very little differentiates smokers and habitual drinkers in my view. Apart from alcoholics dont have an addiction that can directly imact the health of another (unless they knock into you drink driving of course).Car drivers too? Polluting the air with their filthy stench.
Equating car emmissions with a habit that these filthy people do whilst enclosed indoors is not comparing eggs with eggs.0
