It Disturbs Me
It really irks me to no end.. when i see a mother walk casual up and down main street with the baby in a stroller.. and a hand holding a cigarette and smoking her lungs out. For a man to do it .. i can only say.. “ya.. fathers are stupid..!” but for a mother to do it..??? I think it is worst than being stupid. I’ll say.. it’s being irresponsible.. selfish.. and dumb..!
As a mother myself.. i could never do anything deliberately that might harm my daughter. And we all know smoking in front of a young kid or any kid.. might cause the kid to have asthma.. and whatever not..! yet.. these ppl would do that .. to a kid ..who is hardly a year old.. and have been doing it.. since the baby was born. It is more than being irresponsible.. i’ll say..! i think there should be a law.. against.. smoking right in front of the kid..! Mothers or Fathers .. like that .. should be fined heavily.. or kick in their asses real hard.. if you ask me..!
Agree..it is also a very common sight here in Uk…digusting!

very sad! cause here in nunavut, these mothers carry their kids on the back, but smoking like chimney. very often we see babies like trying to blow it away. lots of them hv severe chest infection up here.

I get very angry about this too. I’ve seen one particular mother who smokes when she brings her son home from school, notwithstanding that there are other kids around.
