Hey, if it were my kid, they'd be out on the curb. Consider yourself lucky. Smoking is your decision, true enough, but it does impact others. Many areas still are not smoke free, like bars and sporting events. How sad is it that you can't take a child to a football game without having their health in danger? And no, #9, cake isn't as bad. You can't get "second hand fat" like you can get "second hand cancer". Not to mention the resale value of any furniture, cars, clothes, etc. are all ruined because of the horrid smell. Smoking is a choice, but that doesn't mean that others have to let you do it. If that were the case, nothing would be outlawed, ever. I have just as much right to tell you that you shouldn't do something as you have of telling me I have no right to tell them not to do it, so by saying "what right do you have to tell them to not do it" you are mocking yourself.

Judging a person because they smoke is ridiculous. Your child is not going to get cancer because they breathe in second hand smoke one day at a football game. I have never smoked and I used to be disgusted by people who smoke until I actually sat down and thought about it. Not everybody has an opportunity to see how bad cigarettes are for you, and a lot of people start smoking when they are teenagers. It was just a bad decision they made once that they are now stuck with until they can find the strength to quit. You do remember what it was like being a teenager don't you? When you would do anything to have friends? (And also, just because you were secure enough when you were a teenager to not give in to peer pressure does not make those that were stupid.) Then before you know it you are stuck with this habit that is incredibly difficult to stop. I also would like to point out that most smokers will tell you that they want to quit, but it is difficult when you are addicted to something. My point is that, although smoking is really bad for you and nobody likes to have to smell smoke, you people need to stop being so judgmental of a person who does smoke. This person's mother is understandably upset because they just found out their child is smoking, but her reaction was out of frustration. I hope that later that day she sat down with her kid and talked about a plan to help them quit smoking.

YDI.

Put the cat litter under your mums duvet it will give her a surprise when she gets into bed.

**** your poor kitty's life. Now he has to go on your bed to do the business! AND in Fall River,MA - that would be 8 bucks down the drain. So, YDI for having a shitty hiding place.

Eating cat litter would still be healthier than smoking one cigarette. Smokers are disgusting.

People who say smoking doesnt affect others are retarded. It can cause cancer in non-smokers and destroys furniture

87% of the time a statistic is pulled out of the persons ass. ...like this one.

Nothing stops a habit like kitty litter.

If you're gonna do something stupid, find a better place to hide the evidence.
