Don't have sources handy but I do recall some recent 2nd hand smoke studies that have 'some' suggesting that exposing your children to 2nd hand smoke, even in your own home, could well be considered abuse /endangerment and if appropriate legislation is passed or current legislation is enforced... parents could well find themselves in trouble. [/quote] I see where you're coming from, but I think a lot would have to happen before such a law could be passed. If you think about all the things that parents do to kids that could be considered abuse... can you imagine trying to outlaw everything? What you would end up with would be the government trying to raise everyone's kids. And then there's the issue of enforcement. It's very iffy territory. Personally, I think responsible parents will avoid smoking in the house. The problem is that there are a lot of irresponsible people out there. But just as it is difficult to legislate morality (although they certainly do try), it is also very difficult to legislate responsibility. poi: Interesting info about Norway. It woul be interesting to know if there is actually a law mandating such behavior or if it is for insurance purposes. But I digress. Back to accessibility.
