From Smoking Parent, with Smoking children.
I know this sucks but there are some legal aspects to consider. If you are under 18 a parent can get into a lot of very heavy trouble. Over 18? have the "heavy talk" most of us (smoking parents) want to share but we don't know how to approach the subject. Me? I took my kids to Amsterdam and stoned the woopies out of them, hey it's almost legal there. It's the damn age thing, I really did not want to go to jail for "corrupting the morals of a minor" anywhere in the 'States. Call me a wimp but I had shoes to buy and kids to feed. Oh yea the "leave it out ploy" ...bad idea, you never know who else is coming in the door. Talk first, respect the parents opinion, and live your own life.
