3-year-old chain-smoker worries doctors with habit

Updated: 2006-10-12 08:57

A 3-year-old boy from Tianjin became a chain smoker by smoking as much as a pack of cigarettes per day.

He got into the bad habit months ago by imitating an adult smoker living next to his family, who then gave him a cigarette just for fun.

If he does not give it up, he will become addicted to tobacco psychologically, a doctor warned.

He ain't doing it in a "public" place, so what's all the fuss?

I'm sure I could get many of the all wet posters here to agree that being pissed off is better than being pissed on.

What do YOU think about THAT, what_the_heck?

A pack a day is far from chain smoking.

Chain smokers smoke 3+ packs a day.

This kid is fine.

To move up a notch, you could start reducing the number of emoticons you use! Please! I have no idea what they all mean together.

He needs to be more emotional, reactionary and insulting. I think those are key elements to the formula. For example, in this thread, something like "OMG HOW COULD HIS PARENTS GIVE HIM A CIGARETTE? THEY SHOULD BE KILLED ON SIGHT"

They don't mention that the 3-year old works a long, hard day in the mines, and when he gets home, he just wants to relax with a smoke and poop his pants.
