Smoking with kids in the car?!

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

Hello :)

First I will answer part one, assuming you are asking if it is okay. The answer is yes, it is okay, so long as you wind your window down a bit and maintain a decent speed, otherwise it can get a bit foggy in there. I have always been a non-believer of passive smoking, I think it is blown way out of proportion, the amount of smoke that test rats have been exposed to, to generate the statistics is 10 to 20 times what you would expect to find even in the busiest bar in town. There is no medical evidence to support the theory that passive smoking moves the risk of lung cancer high enough to be significant. I think it's a real shame that smoking is one of those things that the government has managed to force false information about into the brains of easily-led children.

Childrens lungs are at their most sensitive anytime before they are 10. This is when the lungs are developing the most, and this is when smoking and being exposed to vehicular pollution are at their most dangerous, but lungs continue to develop throughout 10-16 years.

Smoke in the car with the window down and nobody will even notice.

Any non smoker can tell you that is just not right. even an adult would cringe. My dad smoked in the car, I hated it. I am stuck suffocating because he has no care for my wishes.I have asthma.

That is terrible at any age. Please don't do it. You will give your children breathing problems or cancer.
