I have to agree with you. We grew up poor yet both my parents chain smoked. My dad died this day last year from cancer. Looking back, there was no money for any 'extras' but they never went without cigarettes - which seems stupid now to me looking back.
As children, we were always in trouble at school coz our uniforms were stinking of smoke and we were accused of smoking on the bus - but it was in our own home. So far no one has mentioned the dangers from secondary smoking.
But I definitely think, that knowing the dangers nowadays as we do, it is silly to start a habit you may not be able to break so easily.
Is it normal that I think people who smoke are mentally inferior?

It is not a fact that smoking is expensive for your average person and extremely harmful to the human body?

Oh yes, I forgot. Smoking around children endangers their health even worse than one's own.
