[Helsinki Harlot]

:3 If it's still acceptable to comment, I'm new and all but my mom smoked when I was a kid, I smoke, I think everyone in my family has at one point or another smoked. My great-aunt, who's runnin' on being almost 80 still smokes half a pack a day and I don't think any less of her. I'm just shocked her lungs still work. Anything that they've done that make me think they failed as a parent or role model, a little bit never had anything to do with their personal choices but how they interacted with me and taught me about what they were doing. (Tho', after several "smoking is bad" programs at my middle school I was the child that brought home the pamphlets to my mom. >.> And now I'm smoking.)

Every smoker knows the risks and been shown several horror videos about what could happen to you (there's a new campaign I've been seeing on TV about getting a stoma.)

What your plan was for how you'd go about smoking is fine. Just don't become some of those mothers/grandparents (omg who takes a 5 year old to the bar/smoking area of a chili's and they both light up?) that I want to punch when I go out (/ taking your baby to a smoking area around pool tables and lighting one up with them in your arms. -shakes head-) <3
