My 5 year old son has asthma. The doctors tell me to keep him away from a smokey environement. My in-laws chain smoke. Plus there is another chain smoker in the house. Three chain smokers. When my son goes and visits they still smoke in front of him. My husband and I have asked them to go outside and smoke while my son their own grandchild is over because the smoke bothers him. They won't stop smoking while he's around.
My son's doctor had personally written a letter to them asking them not to smoke around him. I showed it to my husband and he got mad. Am I wrong in asking them to stop smoking while he's at their house? Isn't it my right, and job to protcet him? My son tells me the smoke makes him feel sick and when I tell him he's going over there he doesn't want to. It's causing problems for my husband and I he won't put his foot down. My husband said he wanted other opions about how bad smoke is for children that have asthma. Isn't it pretty clear? Thank you.
