Ban smoking in the home?
New research suggests that passive smoking makes children more vulnerable to serious infections that lead to diseases such as meningitis. There is also evidence that nine out of 10 cases of cot death could be linked to mothers who smoked during pregnancy. So is it time to ban smoking in the home for the sake of our children's health?

yes of course smoking should be banned in homes, a home is supposed to be a haven not a poisonous prison. your children or whoever comes in contact with you is affected , don't you want to provide a healthy environment for others. its not all about you, its about the people around you.
