I come from a community where smoking is normal. Where my parents and family members think its okay to smoke cigarettes in front of anyone. The reason to this is because they don’t seem to realize what it could do to their surroundings. For instance, my brother and I will be spending the day with my dad running Aarons and my dad will have smoked maybe three to four cigarettes in a twenty minute car ride. As many times of I had told him that there is second hand smoking, he denies the true facts and tells me not to bring it up again. But, second hand smoking is just as bad as smoking itself. In arguing this claim, the Office on Smoking and Health states, “Secondhand smoke also is smoke that has been exhaled, or breathed out, by the person smoking.
